1 Custom Made Rosaries & Chaplets Women Men Children Special Occasions Upon arriving, the angel said to her, Rejoice, O Highly Favored Daughter, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women. Luke 1:28

2 Sue Anna Mary in real life is Sue Ann Goodwin. Sue Ann was born in the South and was raised as a Baptist. In early adulthood, she converted to Catholicism and her faith has been a blessing to her throughout her adult life. One night she attended a Catholic play entitled Late Night Catechism in which Sister Mary Ignatius said that every woman should have Mary in her name. So on that night, Sue Ann became Sue Anna Mary. Sometime after that night, Sue Anna Mary had a dream that she had made 4 rosaries. She had no idea what the significance of the dream was but she felt that the Holy Spirit or maybe Mary, the Blessed Mother of Jesus was definitely calling her to make rosaries. She immediately began surfing the internet to learn the techniques for making rosaries. Then she began searching for rosary materials. She visited almost every bead shop in the city of Houston. Then off she went to the International Gem and Jewelry show in search of beads, jump rings, end caps, rondells and other materials and tools to facilitate her rosary making. She did extensive research to find just the right crucifixes and centers for her rosaries. Pilgrimages to the Holy Land and to Mother Angelica s EWTN and The Shrine of The Most Blessed Sacrament resulted in inspirations for beautiful rosary designs. Sue Ann s husband Bob had a thought one night for a rosary design unlike any rosary he had ever seen. The next morning, he told Sue Anna Mary that she should make a We are one Body rosary. He went on to explain that 1 Corinthians 12:12 says For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ. Now, we as Christians are all different but yet part of one body Christ. So, a We are one Body rosary would be comprised of 59 beads, each one different from all the others. Sue Anna Mary collected the 59 different beads and made the first We are one Body rosary and gave it to the pastor of her parish. Since then, Sue Anna Mary has made many beautiful rosaries. As her friends and neighbors saw them, they started purchasing them and asking her to make custom rosaries for them for personal use and as gifts. Eventually the requests for rosaries grew to the point that she decided to start a business and she pledged to her Lord and to the Blessed Mother Mary that she would donate 10% of the proceeds from rosary sales to the Franciscans that take care of holy sites in Jerusalem. Thus was born Rosaries and Chaplets by Sue Anna Mary. 2

9 Specialty We Are One Body Rosary The We Are One Body Rosary is a unique rosary design of Rosaries and Chaplets by Sue Anna Mary. In this rosary, each bead is different from every other bead in the rosary. The basis for this rosary is found in 1 Corinthians 12:12-14: For as the body is one, and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body, so also is Christ. For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink. For the body also is not one member, but many. - The Holy Bible, Catholic Edition, Douay Rheims Version. Saint Benedict Press. 9
