SANCTA MARIA AD NIVES: Brass and Paracord St Benedict Rosary (Silver)
Handmade by the monks with brass beads, paracord rope, and sturdy St Benedict crosses, these are some of the toughest rosaries around! The title is taken from the feast day associated with the dedication of basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome when a miraculous snowfall in August marked the location of the future church.
How blest that mother, in whose shrine
The great artificer divine,
Whose hand contains the earth and sky,
Vouchsafed, as in his ark, to lie.
