The Lord's Prayer Prayer Flag

Description

A prayer flag honoring the prayer Jesus gave to all his disciples through the ages, from Matthew 6:9-13. "Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory for ever and ever, Amen". The images on this prayer flag are block-printed and stamped by hand on each bright panel. These prayer flags are made in a small shop in Juarez, Mexico, a city ravaged by poverty and violence. The women in our shop take tremendous pride in producing the best quality prayer flags available at a modest price. They are made of a durable weight cotton poplin so they will not 'scrunch up' or tear in the wind. They are hand dyed with permanent, non-toxic dyes and they last many months outside in wind and rain before fading gradually. Our workshop is part of a community development project run by the Sisters of Charity (proyectosantonino.org), for families with special needs children. This project supports several of these families and ALL of our proceeds go directly to the people making the prayer flags. Each strand of prayer flags consists of nine panels, each 6"-5", and the strand is approximately 54" long. They look great indoors or outdoors! If you would like this set of prayer flags in a color combination other than the one shown, check out our custom color options offered for $3.00 over our regular price. The following colors are available: Scarlet, Deep Orange, Golden Yellow, Bright Green, Turquoise and Plum. Our panels are dyed twice so each panel has unique and varied shading. (Please allow two weeks for delivery for all custom items).
