St. Francis of Assisi - Protector of Animals


My St. Francis Protector of Animals Bracelet is handmade by me, "Auntie Angel," as a tribute to my favorite saint, St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and those who suffer.  Many pet guardians pray to St. Francis for the health and welfare of their beloved pets.

Those who are interested are encouraged to read this lovely story about St. Francis preaching to the birds.  It is one of the reasons we feel our St. Francis charm bracelet is so meaningful.

I love all my handmade creations, knowing that a portion of the proceeds honor animals and help support animal welfare organizations, but this piece is especially powerful for me in its simplicity.  It existed in a prior form, but I was compelled to redesign it, on Easter Sunday 2013, the day of the resurrection of Christ, a day of hope and faith.

The Prayer of St. Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.

Help Wanted: Cohosts for Animal Charities

Tired of begging your supporters for donations for your animal rescue organization or shelter or animal-related nonprofit?

I am looking for volunteer cohosts, what I call fellow "do-gooders," within your animal-related nonprofit to coordinate day-long online "parties/auctions" to raise funds for your organization.

On "party/auction" days, I donate 10 percent of the sales price of all merchandise purchased in my shop to the nonprofit organization of the day.  This is for all of your supporters who want to purchase great inspirational gifts but who may not be interested in jewelry.

Don't want to schedule an all-day online party but still want to know how your organization can earn money every day of the year?  Read how Auntie Angel Designs got started and what the "mission" is all about:  the animals!

Every day when a customer purchases one of my inspirational and pet-lover jewelry pieces, a portion of the sales price is donated to the charity/shelter/cause of my customer's choice (with the exception of the canine cancer charitable jewelry, which is earmarked for two different canine cancer foundations at this time).  All the customer needs to do is type in where they'd like their donation to be sent in the "Charity Donation to" box, and I take care of the rest.  It's THAT simple!

Link to the Auntie Angel Designs portion to my gift shop and let your supporters know what we're up to!  Contact Jean today for more details.

Now one can purchase heart-felt inspirational animal-lover jewelry that helps the animals.  Something for us all to feel good about!
