Description

JESUS AND THE CHILDREN: A wonderful wall hanging in bronze from the famous abbey of MARIA LAACH in Germany and designed by Egino Weinert, famous German artist whose work may be seen at the Vatican. What separates this piece from mass-produced Christian gifts is its craftsmanship and the palpable sense of reverence and Biblical authenticity. The cross reflects the deeply reverent spirituality of the artist and his dedication to craft. The design itself powerfully evokes the story of Jesus protecting and blessing the children.

Written in German on the back of this cross is the following:

But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” (Matthew 19:14)

“for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.” (Matthew 18:10)

A wonderful gift for Baptisms, First Holy Communions, Shower Gifts for a new Baby, or for any Family with Children.

ABOUT THE MONASTERY OF MARIA LAACH: For over 50 years Maria Laach has offered religious cards, icons, and bronzes of high quality. There are about 80 Monks, assisted by Lay people in the production of these works sold all over the world. The grounds of the Monastery are also a sign of their large agricultural business. Their more recent works include gates and garden art. Our visit in 2007 gave us an incredible sense of this very blessed community.
