Olive Wood Jesus Prayer Beads

Olive Wood Jesus Prayer Beads in Muslin Pouch

Jesus Beads originated in the tradition of the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches. Called a Chotki, this is traditionally used as a silent "breath prayer," with "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God" prayed on the inhalation and "have mercy on me, a sinner" prayed on exhalation.

Made from olive wood beads and a matching Jerusalem Cross made from the pruned branches of the olive trees growing on the hills of Bethlehem.
