A priest already owns a rosary. What he does not own is a Last Supper carved in Bethlehem, a standing crucifix for the rectory desk, or a chalice carving from the olive wood of the Holy Land. These gifts come from Christian families who carve for the churches of Bethlehem, and they suit an ordination, a first Mass, an anniversary, Clergy Appreciation Day, or a farewell from the parish.
Parishes and Knights of Columbus councils pool for the larger carvings. Individual families choose a standing crucifix or a saint statue for his office.
