"Reminder to Pray"





This sculpture is unusual, beautiful and a calm reminder to pray about things which are out of our control. I recently sent one as a gift to my sister who has a terminal diagnosis. She placed in a prominent place in her home to remind her that God is always with her.

This is a beautiful and unique Nativity - very well crafted! We love the setting with an African-style shelter for the stable, and African Holy Family. We will look forward to displaying this Nativity at Christmas time every year from now on.
