Handcrafted Orthodox Christian Educational Toys
6641 182A Street V3S 0N8 Surrey, BC, Canada

As Orthodox Christians, we typically have many sacred and sanctified objects that we have collected and received as gifts from our friends: icons, crosses, flasks with blessing oil, items from the Holy Land, candles, prayer ropes, prosphora, and antidoron, just to name a few. Although we love to have and see them around, wouldn't it be great to have a special box to store all these precious items in one place? We thought about this too and that is why this box was created! Th...is box is made of Canadian Western Red Cedar wood and has an Orthodox Cross inlay made of olive wood harvested in Bethlehem. It has an antique brass latch and hinges. But that's not all. We wanted to use this product as an opportunity to teach you about important virtues - godliness (piety) and devoutness: What does it mean to be pious and devout? Is there a difference between these two words? Where do we see these virtues mentioned in the Bible? How can one learn to become a devout and pious person? What do Orthodox Saints tell us about these virtues? Answering these questions is the main reason this educational set was created. https://www.etsy.com//keepsake-memory-and-treasure-box-with See more
