A Beautiful Gift from Alaska

  This is the lovely gift I received from my blogger friend, Paula.
Her husband, Charles, paints icons and liturgical art in Douglas,
Alaska. I sent Paula a pair of my mittens, and in turn, she blessed
me with a little icon prayer shrine and the beautiful card of Mary
with the baby Jesus. Thanks, Paula!
