HOLY FACE OF JESUS ICON WITH JESUS BEADS AND POUCH
Christians are exhorted to pray without ceasing. This pouch features the ancient Jesus Prayer created by the desert fathers in the fourth or fifth century. It is an act of humility calling out for God’s mercy: “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, Have mercy on me a sinner.” The prayer is adapted from the cry of the blind man, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me” (Luke 18:38-41)
Included in the pouch is a set of Jesus Beads, also called Komboskini in Greek or Chotki in Russian. It consists of three groups of 10 wooden beads separated by a larger bead with small gold spacer beads and a laser cut wood cross at the beginning.
To pray this prayer all you do is repeat over and over again: "Lord Jesus Christ Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner".
Also included in this set is a beautiful small Icon of Jesus called “Not Made By Hands”. The gold foil icon of the Holy Face has a finished back with a golden cross and decorative border and measures 2½”W x 3”H.
Pouch was made in Turkey; prayer beads in the Ukraine; and the icon is from Russia.
