Product Description
The Angel of the Nativity Dolomite White Series invites us into the mystery of the Nativity. This Angel is part of a beautiful, 15-piece nativity set (crèche) fashioned with faith at a European monastery. Please consider acquiring this Angel (or another Nativity piece) year by year, until, one day, your Nativity is complete and is displayed in serene beauty in your office, home, or church!
A Dolomite Crèche from Europe – A Labor of Faith, Hope and Love
This Angel stands 5.5 inches tall. All 15 pieces of this crèche are composed of local dolomite stone, harvested from the earth, and individually handcrafted by nuns of a monastic community in Europe. Each member of this community, in her own hermitage, dedicates herself to performing one specific task towards completion of every nativity piece. She accompanies and blesses every piece with her contemplative prayer. Every completed piece is, then, truly a labor of faith, hope, and love!
For Home, Church, Office, and School – An Heirloom-Quality Crèche
This entire crèche will enhance with depth and beauty office, home, school, church, in fact, any place where family and friends come together during the Christmas season. A crèche imparts a real serenity and meaning to any place of gathering. In many countries in Europe a crèche, small or large, can be seen prominently displayed in public places, banks, restaurants, banks, business offices, hospitals and care facilities.
May your home, office, school, and church be graced and blessed by a crèche that bespeaks with theological and aesthetic integrity our Christian faith and its traditions. It is our heritage and culture to bring our religious faith into our daily life. This crèche is a precious heirloom that will be prominently displayed and treasured for many generations to come!

Excerpt from the Angelus message of Pope Benedict XVI (Advent 2005)
To set up the crib at home can be a simple but effective way of presenting the faith and transmitting it to one’s children. The manger helps us to contemplate the mystery of God’s love who revealed himself in the poverty and simplicity of the Bethlehem cave.
Saint Francis of Assisi was so overwhelmed by the mystery of the Incarnation, that he wanted to present it again in Greccio with the living manger, thus becoming the initiator of a long popular tradition which still keeps its value for evangelization today.
The crib can help us, in fact, to understand the secret of the true Christmas, because it speaks of humility and the merciful goodness of Christ, who “though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor”. (II Corinthians 8:9) His poverty enriches those who embrace it and Christmas brings joy and peace to those who, as the shepherds, accept in Bethlehem the words of the angel: “And this will be a sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger”. (Luke 2:12)
It continues to be a sign also for us, men and women of the 21st century. There is no other Christmas.
