Christmas Prayer Flag. Mary and Joseph, a Nativity, Holy Night... All Proceeds to Families In Juarez, Mexico. Free domestic shipping.

A beautiful honoring of the birth of Jesus and the journey of Mary and Joseph with their infant Son. This prayer flag would make a wonderful addition to your family's Christmas tradition. The images are block-printed by hand on each of the bright panels and contain the verses: "And the angel said to them, fear not, for behold I bring you good news of great joy." Luke 2:10 "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a savior, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:11 These prayer flags are made in a small shop in Juarez, Mexico, a city ravaged by poverty and violent crime in. 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, Fiber Reactive Procion dyes and they last many months outside in wind and rain before fading very gradually. Our workshop is part of a community development project run by the Sisters of Charity (proyectosantonino.org), who have a community center 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 rainbow, 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.
