PRODUCT REVIEW + GIVEAWAY : MY COMFORT CROSS

No matter what your religious preference, or where you are in life…there is always room for comfort. Comfort from a friend, a family member and even… a cross. Prayer is something that no matter the situation, you are hoping for the best and/or being thankful for what you may already have.

Some of you may remember back in April when I reviewed this product via my own personal blog, Twice is Nice. And for those of you that don’t…here is a little bit of background information about this wonderful product called “My Comfort Cross“.

So what is the product?

An attractive handcrafted cross made from Olive wood. The cross comes inside a beautiful red velveteen bag with a card explaining the significance of the comfort cross and this verse: “When I am afraid. I will trust in you.” – Psalm 56:3.

Designed to fit in the palm of your hand, it is perfect for taking with you anywhere…

The cross is smooth to the touch, and a perfect reminder to have faith in God. It is small enough where you could take it with you in your purse, back pack, diaper back, etc. You could keep it in the car, on your desk or by your bedside.

The Olivewood Cross

Comfort Crosses are individually carved from a single unique piece of beautifully grained olive wood pruned from the olive trees around Bethlehem the birthplace of Jesus.

Christians have been carving crosses like this for hundreds of years, originally for pilgrims and more recently tourists visiting the Holy Land. Each craftsman receives a fair price to support their family and Christian community. The Comfort Cross is designed to fit comfortably into the palm of your hand as an aid to prayer or meditation. Ideal as your spiritual companion for easing children’s fears, comforting worries and stresses of adults and focusing the prayer of the sick and elderly.

What’s really great about this company?

Their mission is to help Christians in Bethlehem. This is a story they sent to me below:

Issa is a Christian living on the outskirts of Bethlehem and has been carving crosses and religious items his whole life to support his wife and three children. Twenty years ago my mother met Issa on a visit to Bethlehem and began importing his olive wood handicrafts. With the decline in Bethlehem tourism, Issa and other Christian Artisans are struggling. Our aim is to support them by providing a market for olive wood crosses direct to Christians in America.

Purchasing comfort crosses and other handicrafts made by local Christians in Bethlehem who are paid a fair price for their work both provides yourself with a beautiful natural reminder of Jesus Christ but also supports the presence of Christians in the land of Christ.
