This striking metaphor is used by Jesus to explain the relationship between humanity and himself. This marvelous icon by Sister Marie-Paul uses the motif to bring together many of the Gospel scenes in which Jesus called people to be his followers.

The top of the icon reads:

The original artwork for this lovely holy card was painted by John Lu Hung Nien of Peking (Beijing), China. He was a convert to Catholicism as he studied art at the Catholic University of Peking. This image has become quite famous because of the depth of emotion in the artwork as well as for the lack of many Asian Catholic images.

Saint Michael the Archangel is known as the leader of the army of God during the Lucifer (the Devil) uprising. Devotion to the Archangel is common to Christians, Muslims and Jews alike and there are writings about him in all three cultures. He has been credited with leading the protection against the Anti-Christ, or the devil.

Saint Michael is commonly represented with his wings in full view with sword in hand while crushing Lucifer with the heal of his left foot.

On the reverse is a Prayer to Saint Michael:

Saint Michael the Archangel,
Defend us in the day of battle

Be our protection against the
wickedness and snares of the devil;

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,

By the divine power of God, thrust
into hell Satan and all evil spirits
Who wander through the world
Seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Born in the Middle Ages, Hildegard was a woman of the ages. At a time when few women wrote - either text or music, Hildegard produced major visionary works. She was the 10th child, and was "tithed" to the church, just as wages and income were at the time. Saint Hildegard has become an inspirational representation of true and honest spirit and intellect - without regard to gender. She broke through the glass ceiling before it was ever conceived.

She has become timeless and has crossed the barrier of religion as well. Her writings have become essential to the New Age movement and she is well respected in her studies in many fields including herbs, plants, religion and medicinal uses of these plants, as well as animals and stones.

These lovely holy cards are a bit lighter weight than some others we offer, but the printing is absolutely outstanding. They are a convenient size for use as gifts or bookmarks - measuring 3-1/8 by 4-5/8 inches on heavy cream-colored paper. The back is blank except for a faint colophon at the bottom, leaving plenty of room for custom imprinting with your own message, or a place to write a note to a friend, or to inscribe an appropriate prayer.

We were quite taken with these wonderful icon-style prints - the detail is gorgeous and the printing superb.

The title, The Secret of the Meal refers to the mystical reality of the first institution of what has become to be known as the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper. Jesus Christ is the central figure in this icon and is the only one who is looking directly at us. Jesus holds his right hand, not straight up as in traditional blessing position, but up-turned and opened as to show how he is offering his very body and blood for food to save all people of good will.

There are 11 pyramid-shaped halves of bread in front of the apostles. The icon artist has also captured the obvious awe, wonder, and confusion that his followers exhibit when Jesus explains to them that it is truly his body to be eaten and his blood to be drunk - and all of this should be done in remembrance of him.

We think this a wonderful addition to an invitation to Christmas or Easter dinner.

The loaves are also a reminder of the meal that Christ shared when he multiplied the loaves and fishes - that the apostles know that they should share their new knowledge and faith.

"Where you go, I will go;
where you lodge, I will lodge;
your people shall be my people,
and your God my God.”
(Ruth 1:16)

These famous words of love and devotion were spoken by the Moabite woman Ruth to her mother-in-law, Naomi, a Hebrew widow. After the death of Naomi's husband, she became especially close to her sons and their wives - notably Ruth. Both of Naomi's sons died and she and their wives became even closer. Naomi encouraged them to go forth and find new husbands as they were young. But, this is a love story beyond husband and wife. Ruth encouraged Naomi to join them and finally Naomi became grandmother and guardian of Ruth's children as they grew. And, Ruth became the great-grandmother of King David.

Of course there is much more to this story, but we have always been taken by such stories of family commitment and love and the truth that families are not made of simple bloodlines after all. We are all connected in one manner or another by everyone who has touched our lives.

More Angels

We were quite taken with these wonderful icon-style prints - the detail is gorgeous and the printing superb.

The belief that an angel is assigned by God to protect each person was not clearly defined in the Old Testament, although popular legend suggests that many believed in angels as protectors.

The concept of a personal Guardian Angel is supported throughout the Bible's New Testament, even in the Book of Revelations, or the Apocalypse. It was further fostered by Honorius of Autun in the 12th century. He maintained that every soul was assigned a guardian angel at the moment the soul entered into a body.

But, in popular culture today, even among those that are skeptical of religions, the sense of a Guardian Angel gives comfort to many. Such angels are particularly associated with children. The movie, Grand Canyon, is a great example of such a secular view of the guardian protector.

The depicted Guardian Angel holds a scroll that reads:

GOD HAS
GIVEN HIS
ANGELS
CHARGE
OVER YOU
TO GUARD
YOU IN ALL
YOUR WAYS

Saint Jude Holy Cards with Metallic Accents

More Holy Cards & Other Trading Cards

Saint Jude is probably one of the most popular saints amongst Catholics and other believers today. He is the Patron Saint of lost or impossible causes. It is believed that this patronage has been derived from the confusion by many early Christians between Jude and Judas not understanding the difference in the names. No one ever prayed for Jude's help, and devotion to him became something of a lost cause.

Made famous by comedian Danny Thomas, St Jude has come to represent hope and much more than just lost causes. St Jude's Children's Research Hospital, created by Danny Thomas after his prayer was heard, provides treatment for children who suffer from catastrophic medical conditions, without regard to the family's ability to pay.

Each of the 5 cards in this package is the same and features a lovely image of St Jude on the front, accented with metallic ink and foil. On the back, a prayer to Saint Jude:

St. Jude, glorious Apostle, faithful
servant and friend of Jesus, the name
of the traitor has caused you to be
forgotten by many but the true Church
invokes you universally as the Patron of
things despaired of; pray for me, who
am so miserable; pray for me that finally
I may receive the consolations and the
help of Heaven in all my necessities,
tribulations and sufferings, particularly
(***there make your request***), and that I
may bless God with the Elect
throughout Eternity.
Amen.

 

St. Jude Apostle, martyr and relative
of our Lord Jesus Christ, of Mary
and Joseph, intercede for us.

Many saints have their days of patronage, but March 17 is probably one of the best known and most celebrated - for St Patrick. Born around 387 in Scotland, he was captured and sent as a slave to Ireland. He became devout and converted much of Ireland. During the Middle Ages, Ireland was known as the Land of the Saints, mainly due to the teachings of Saint Patrick.

He is patron of the Irish, Ireland, New York and those who suffer from ophidiophobia - the fear of snakes.

Each set includes five standard-sized prayer cards, all the same. On the back of each card is an Irish blessing:

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
the rains fall soft upon your fields and,
until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His Hand.

Set of 5 Vintage Elvis Cards

Wow! Each set of vintage Elvis Cards contains 5 different images - most are black and white (we like these best), but an occasional color photo slips into one of the packages. The reverse side summarizes the photo` and that time in Elvis' life. Most cards date from the late 80s to early 90s, but some are older.

These are very limited, so, don't get caught in a trap, once the ones we have are gone, they're gone!

Vintage Cigarette Cards

Vintage Cigarette Trading Cards - Package of 10

Just like bubble gum (baseball) cards and other collectible cards, cards inserted into cigarette packs were collected from the end of the 19th century through the beginning of World War II. Usually they were issued in series and people would trade or collect them. On the front, you'll usually find a vivid pictures - usually a print or painting, but sometimes a photographic image. The flip-side would describe the front (and sometimes the other cards in the series) and indicate the advertiser and sometimes the artist.

Because they were created specifically to be collected, the manufacturers and printers chose appealing subjects: movie stars, royalty, circus animals, birds, airplanes, trees, butterflies, and more. Some people, in fact, purchased the cigarettes for the cards even though they didn't smoke!

Most cigarette trading cards are about 2-3/4 inches by 1-1/2 inches printed on card-weight paper, making them the perfect addition to your artwork. Our package contains an assortment of 10 assorted cards printed in vivid color, watercolor-like hues, sepia-tone or black and white. Glue one to a small piece of cardstock to make a special gift tag or doll-house poster! We're sure you'll find many uses for these wonderful cards!

Package of 5 Icon Style Holy Cards: Prodigal Son

Icon Style Holy Cards - The Prodigal Son (Pay it Forward) - Package of 5

More Holy Cards & Trading Cards

More Generosity

This stunning icon holy card recounts a familiar parable commonly called the Prodigal Son. We are fortunate to observe the moment when a son who squandered his inheritance has returned in shame only to be embraced by his father.

The parable suggests that God has infinite mercy and will always forgive. However, we like to meditate further on our own commitment to forgiveness and mercy. We all make mistakes and want to be loved despite our folly. So, do we not owe it to each other to give comfort when it might be hardest?

Trying times bring out the worst in a few and the best in most. We've discovered that help is always there. We needn't ask - someone is just around the corner waiting to pay it forward. So shall we.

This is an original icon design by Sister Marie Paul, but is a familiar depiction in Western art. Just let it be any two of us in this world.

The top of the icon reads:

LE RETOUR
DE L'ENFANT
PRODIGUE
(THE RETURN OF THE PRODIGAL CHILD)

These lovely holy cards are a bit lighter weight than some others we offer, but the printing is absolutely outstanding. They are a convenient size for use as gifts or bookmarks - measuring 3-1/8 by 4-5/8 inches on heavy cream-colored paper. The back is blank except for a faint colophon at the bottom, leaving plenty of room for custom imprinting with your own message, or a place to write a note to a friend, or to inscribe an appropriate prayer.
