Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta is a saint that everyone seems to recognize and be able to relate. She was a world-wide celebrity, while at the same time a humble servant to the sick and dying. In almost all areas of our spiritual and practical life we can look to St. Mother Teresa for guidance and inspiration.
Created to evoke memories of Mother Teresa’s sari, the beautifully patterned jasper beads on this decade rosary, or tenner chaplet, are shades of her signature blue. Mother Teresa chose the blue border in honor of Our Lady and each of the three bands on the border represent the three vows taken by the Missionaries of Charity: Poverty, Obedience, and Chastity with Wholehearted service to the poor. The Our Father bead as well as the six small spacer beads, are formed from riverstone, whose slight swirls make these creamy beads an elegant accent to the darker decade beads. They also call to mind the white fabric of Mother’s sari, which symbolizes truth and purity. A simple crucifix at the start of the chaplet reminds us of the crucifix worn on the left shoulder by Mother and the sisters, which is a sign to all that Jesus on the Cross is “the key to the heart.” The exclusive St Mother Teresa medal at the end of the chaplet features an etching of the saint’s gentle but determined likeness. Made-to-order, the chaplet can be personalized and makes an unforgettable gift for anyone with a special devotion to St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta.
