Will has just produced a series of three Rainbow Clergy Stoles, great for any celebration, but especially for celebrations of equality.  There are three stoles, one each with a weft of silver, red, or green.

Stole white fib 1
Stole white fib 2
Stole red fib 1
Stole red fib 2
Stole Green Fib 1
Stole green fib 2

The warps for each stole is black, gold, green, purple, blue, and red, in the Fibonacci Sequence of 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21.  A slender gold thread in the center signifies the Golden Mean.

These are hefty stoles – definitely not for the timid!  They measure about 8′ long x 6″ wide, and are made from 100% mercerized cotton. They are the only three of their kind that will be produced here at Ephods & Pomegranates.

Price:  $125.00

Special discount in June for students in the Sewanee summer advanced degree programs.

De Colores CardA great variation on our Personal Prayer Stole is the

De Colores Prayer Stole for Cursillistas, Spiritual Directors,
and Clergy supporting the Cursillo Movement in the Churches!

Like all our Personal Prayer Stoles, these are about 60″ long by 4.25″ wide. They are small enough not to be confused with a clergy stole, and to be portable enough to carry along and create a personal prayer space wherever you are. Special De Colores Prayer Card (show at left) included.

“Seminarian” Prayer Stoles

Prayer StolesOur Personal Prayer Stoles are not just for Seminarians, and certainly not just for Clergy. 

They are a personal prayer garment for anyone who likes to create a sanctified personal prayer space – one they can take with them wherever they go.  But because the design is so versatile, we’ve decided to offer the idea of “Seminarian” Prayer Stoles – not because Seminarians are more likely to be devout, but because we know from experience that Seminarians are frequently in need of prayer!

Our personal prayer stoles are about 60″ long by 4.25″ wide: small enough that they cannot be confused with a standard clergy Eucharistic stole, and can be quite portable – useful wherever you wish to pause for prayer.  They are a smaller and less expensive version of our larger prayer shawls.  They can be ordered in custom colors.  Our “Seminarian” line, shown here, is certainly “unofficial,”  not endorsed by any of the seminaries.  But we have chosen colors suggested by each of the seminary seals.  The association with any educational institution is ours alone, but you might like to have a Seminarian Prayer Stole whose colors suggest your school:

New Semninary Stole

1 – VTS                  2 – CDSP               3 – Berkeley        4 – General         5 – SSW          6 – EDS

7 – Bexley            8 – Seabury        9 – Trinity           10 – Nashota      11 –  Sewanee

CORRECTION: Nashotah (no. 10) should be Gold, Blue, and Red.  We’ll correct the picture soon.

———————————————————————

Of course the Prayer Stoles above are not restricted to students or alumni of the various seminaries!  If you see one you like, go ahead and order it.

And many folks are already using our Prayer Stoles in colors of their own choosing.  Here are some:

Prayer Stole Elements
Prayer stole Goddess
Prayer Stole Mother
Prayer stole Levi

This Saint Brendan of the Ninth Wave altar cloth and celebrant’s scarf was woven by Will for use at home with our Eucharist Service from the Saint Brendan’s Missal.  (Unfortunately, the purple in the design came out blue in the photos, but you can imagine!)  Sometimes we actually weave things for ourselves!

toast 1We at Ephods & Pomegranates are both graduates of The School of Theology here in Sewanee (Glyn in 1992, Will in 1981.)  Now that we have retired back to the Holy Mountain, one focus of our handweaving is to craft Eucharistic Stoles for Clergy (and for Seminarians in the process of becoming Clergy.)  And as a ministry to Seminarians, we do offer a Seminarian Discount.021

Our stoles are available at Taylor’s Mercantile, at the foot of University Avenue in Sewanee, and here at our Weaving Studio in Monteagle.  Soon they will also be available on our Handmade at Amazon store.

These stoles are currently on display and for sale at Taylor’s Mercantile in Sewanee.
