So these little 'Niner' chaplets with 3 sets of 3 beads have been around a long time, they have a history.  Its more than just a tradition, as it appears, they also carried certain indulgences. These old medals open up a moment of visual history that gifts us with a sense of a long lineage of prayer partners in the Communion of Saints. A beautiful medal for deep meditation and prayer for not only our sons and daughters but our grandchildren.
