A PalmCross' Last Kiss - Most Powerful Testimonial

This is truly one of the most powerful testimonies we have received. It is utterly amazing that someone in a coma could feel the presence of the PalmCross clutched in his hands enough to bring it to his lips for a final kiss before his death.

I must tell you about the PalmCross that I sent to a dear friend.

Don was the best man at our wedding 60 years ago.  He lived in Virginia, and we visited with him a month before he died of cancer. After returning from our visit, I sent Don a PalmCross.  His wife called me shortly after and said how much he appreciated it. After he died, his wife called again and, in tears, said that Don died with the PalmCross in his hand.  He was in a coma but raised his hand with the cross in it, then kissed it and died.

It makes me almost cry every time I tell the story. His wife was trying to decide whether to bury him with the cross, but after much thought decided to keep for herself as a reminder of  Don and us.

Just thought that might be of interest to you. We have given several PalmCrosses to friends for various reasons, and they are always so appreciative.

Safe Driving with Your PalmCross

This customer received his PalmCross from a confirmant he sponsored. He drove for a living and decided he better not drive with it in his hand. Admittedly, I have done this myself. If it's in my offhand and my hand is still on the wheel, I don't feel unsafe. However, a lot of the time, I keep it just under my right thigh in the car. My husband keeps his in the center console. Speaking of consolation, having the PalmCross present has really helped when driving in horrible weather or during plane takeoffs and landings!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Several years ago, a young lady did me the great honor of asking me to sponsor her at her Confirmation. Of course, I accepted. After the ceremony, she, her parents and I went to dinner, and exchanged gifts. She has a great love for St. Anne, so I finally found a picture of the Saint for her. She handed me a small box that when opened contained one of your PalmCrosses. I had never seen anything like it before. 

I prayed with it for awhile, then stopped, as I was driving for a living, and it didn't seem very safe. I have now retired, and I pray with my cross every day, and love it! I have a friend, a lady I worked with, who is struggling with some pretty severe problems. I just ordered a PalmCross for her, in hopes that it will give her something concrete to hang onto. I expect to be ordering more in the future.

Blessing for all that you do, 

Paul

The Beautiful Holy Spirit Medallion PalmCross

For many years, ByRon PalmCross only offered corpus and non-corpus crosses. The corpus crosses are original, hand-drawn and carved images, so while the style is consistent, no two crosses are alike. All of the PalmCrosses are stamped and dates as original works of art.

A couple of years ago, the carpenter and his wife - Ron and Elaine Foht - decided to add three styles of medallion crosses. The Holy Spirit Medallion, with its beautiful dove representation, has become one of our most popular crosses. It has so many purposes, as the Holy Spirit is called upon for sacraments, for hope, and for all grace.

Young, First Communicants Feel Godmother's Presence through the Cross

The PalmCross has always been a wonderful gift for any sacrament. What a perfect time to encapsulate the prayers of your loved ones and create lasting memories and support! In this testimonial, a Godmother was able to share her close presence with her Godchildren across the ocean. The young children not only felt her spirit, but also perfectly understood the PalmCrosses and started using them right away. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’ve been meaning to write you ever since my Godchildren had their First Communion over in Germany and somehow managed to never get a note off to you. So, without further delay, I want to thank you so very much for helping me give Marie and Matt the perfect First Communion gift.

I was able to Skype with them when they opened my gifts, and the PalmCrosses were, of course, the most special. My Godson, Matt, immediately starting reading the card you and Ron have written explaining the purpose of the cross and asked me what “never ending” meant. I explained about the oils from those who love them are imbedded in the cross forever and that the love, support and spirit of those who hold the crosses is never ending and will be with them forever.  I told him that I had held the crosses and had my brother and his wife and another very close friend who knows Marie and Matt hold them before I mailed them.  I also told them I bought one for myself and that I would be getting up and holding my cross from 4:00-5:00a.m., praying and thinking of them so I could be there in spirit since I couldn’t be in person.  (Which I did and it was such a special time for me.)

You’re going to love this part…………when I talked with them the evening after their First Communion and reception/celebration party that their parents had for them…they told me that they both took their crosses with them to their First Communion Mass that morning. Marie had hers in her little white purse, and she told me she reached in and touched it several times while they were praying and she said, “So, Alli, you were with me/us during the communion.” Then Matt told me he took his cross and had it in his suit jacket pocket (which was next to his heart) and that he had the priest and all of his friends who were in his First Communion class hold the cross – and then all of the family members (which includes my sister) hold it later that afternoon at their communion reception.  I told him that was exactly what the purpose of the cross was, and I was so glad it was special to him.

So, I wanted to thank you, your husband and your daughter, once again, for creating such a meaningful and perfect gift of love and support for me to give to my precious godchildren. Your PalmCrosses are so very special, and I know are giving warmth and comfort to all of those who have been fortunate enough to receive one.

I thank you for the bottom of my heart, and wish you and your family all of God’s blessing.
