Christmas Novena Chaplet with Prayer Card
St. Andrew Christmas Chaplet
5 1/4" Long
8mm Glass Beads
A St. Andrew Christmas chaplet is a specific type of rosary or prayer chaplet traditionally used during the Advent season, particularly associated with the feast of St. Andrew, which begins on November 30. This chaplet is used to pray the St. Andrew Christmas Novena, a prayer recited 15 times a day from St. Andrew's feast day until Christmas.
The purple beads are significant as they reflect the liturgical color of Advent, reminding the faithful of the season's themes of anticipation and preparation for Christ's coming. This chaplet serves as a physical and spiritual aid, helping the faithful to prepare their hearts and minds for the celebration of Christmas through focused prayer and reflection.
