Prayer Handiwork – 100 Knots – Mount Athos

Description

Mount Athos prayer handiwork, with 100 knots. It is braided with synthetic thread, bears a cross at its end with a tassel.

The rosary is not exclusive to the monks. According to the Apostle Paul’s command to “pray continuously,” anyone can keep a prayer rope in his pocket or in some other discreet place so that he can pray unnoticed, without attracting the attention of others, at any time of the day.

In the Garden of the Virgin Mary, the Orthodox monastic tradition defines prayer as a necessary daily exercise and communication with God. Either alone or in the Holy Services in the Catholic of the Holy Monastery, the monks indulge in prayer with fervor and miraculous results.

The construction of the rosary is a ministry of the monks on Mount Athos, who through a plethora of monastic products they produce, enable every believer to get to know monastic life as a core of supply for Orthodox Christians everywhere.
