/Hobby and Crafts PR News/ - Troy, NJ, June 06, 2008 - Rosaryparts.com supplies rosary making parts to rosary makers. The company estimates that well over 100,000 rosaries have been made and sent to our troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and other locations around the world by our customers.
"Since the war began, rosary makers have been steadfast in their support for our troops," said Steve Lewis, President of rosaryparts.com. "We originally developed a special rosary made out of plastic parts and spacers (St. Theresa kit). Now we have added a knotted rosary made out of cord (Knotted Rosary). It offers some real advantages to our soldiers who are in harms way."
The knotted cord rosary is especially important since it meets the needs of the combat zone. It is made out of a durable cord which is hand knotted and fitted with a plastic crucifix. Some of the benefits of this rosary are that it is light weight, sturdy, it will not reflect light, which is extremely important, it will not get hot like metal, and it does not rattle or make a sound. Each spool of cord, which is available in dark colors can make up to100 rosaries.
Rosaryparts.com has hundreds of customers making rosaries for the troops overseas. They report that it is a fulfilling project that makes them feel a real measure of support for our men and women in the field. Taking part in the Rosaries for the Troops project is easy. Just go to rosaryparts.com and click on the Rosaries for the Troops link. The kits come with pictorial instructions.
