Last week I made a set of prayer beads for a good friend that was about to do the Walk to Emmaus. I called her and went over to her house to give the beads to her – explained how to use them and wished her well. I had hoped to do the Walk to Emmaus with her but found out when I was filling out the application that if you’re married, your spouse has to go also – men go one weekend, women go another. Ron wasn’t interested. So that was not in my future.
When I went to our Bible Study on Monday of this week, my friend, CL, brought the prayer beads and shared about how much they meant to her. At one point during her Walk to Emmaus, the topic of prayer was there, and she shared the beads and how to use them. Her small group was excited about them, and they ended up making a poster and sharing with the whole group. Now CL wants to make them for the women in her small group. I sent her the information on what to buy, and she is coming over to my house tomorrow morning, and we’ll make some together.
I really enjoy making the beads. Better still, I’ve found them very helpful i providing structure to my prayers.
