Sisterof the Community of St. John


We are very fortunate to have many religious in our area. A few miles from us we have the Congregation of St. John, with some Apostolic brothers and Contemplative sisters. Our family visits their community a few times a month. My 7yo has a novice who is very special to him named Sister Philomena, so I wanted to make a doll for him. This doll is of a fully professed sister (the habit is slightly different) but still very special to him.

The sisters and brothers have a large rosary on their left side, I did not have the ability to make all 200+ beads they have, yes one for all 20 mysteries, so I made a single decade rosary.

This doll is made of cotton felt, it is completely hand sewn.
