#754 Christmas clergy stole - Bells stole
While visiting Assisi, Italy the ringing of the many church bells throughout the day touched our souls and awakened our hearts and minds to the history of the faithful that had gone before us in these churches. And that inspired this stole! The symbolism of the is rich. The sanctus bell in worship announces the presence of Christ. Church bells also call and encourage the faithful. The hollow of the bell can be thought of as the mouth of the preacher with the clapper representing his tongue as a reminder of the Word of God being shared and taught.
The stole front is crafted from white-on-white printed cotton. It is interfaced for added body and the backing fabric is the same as the front.
