Rosary Workshop - Handcast Rosary parts
 PRAYER WORKS!
 FOUND THROUGH PRAYER AND TRUST!
Thanks be to God, we will be able to share with you our newest collection, but not without a history! Items below were shipped to our caster Feb 24th 2007 and it was lost. We were sick as these pieces are rare reasure, antiques, never to be found again! The history of them being found is a precious lesson in prayer! Jesus is in contol!
 
   FEBRUARY 24th - MARCH 1st
Shipped by UPS (tracked) to caster, arrived March 1st. Caster is not using PACK & SHIP CENTER any more so package was rejected by P & SC as Address was not updated and is now  incorrect..  Phone number was also entered wrong, so it went back to UPS.  Tracking tells us they are trying to resolve matter. Small town and caster uses same UPS drivers so found it curious.
(original file images below include notes for caster)

UPS returned package to Pack and Ship where it was now accepted and signed for. (Tracking confirms signature of person who signed) This completed UPS service. (I was in Germany during this time (3 weeks), so unaware there was a problem until I came home).

APRIL 14th
I am home, ask about package, no one at Rosary Workshop has heard so our Shipping Department begins to track UPS. Call caster, he goes to Pack & Ship Center but told it is not there. He persists, visiting several times, they deny having it each time. He calls UPS. Explains we must track from our end so he gives us 800 numbers and UPS  says, ''Stay on it daily"

+PRAYER+
Our Shipping Department tries several other UPS 800 numbers with no results. A sense of hopelessness kept pouring over me and each time it would, I would refuse to accept it.  Refuse it!  Over and over again I would pray it was found, knwing Jesus knew where it was! "Jesus, I trust in you!"
+
APRIL 14 - 17th
Caster has now made more 800 calls to UPS Ttrack and Claims with no luck and P & S denies having it again. Now what! Multiple follow-up phone calls to UPS from both ends yielded same answer, ‘not here’. I find out the package, worth over $1000  containing irreplaceable antique parts - was not insured. Am discouraged but sensed the Lord wanted us to trust him.

+PRAYER+
Hopelessness builds but so does the sense of hope. God is there! He knows where it is! I need to thank him in advance and do! "Jesus, I trust in you!"
+
APRIL 17th
We send a 2nd day UPS to P & SC, showing that we have the tracking including signature of employee recipient and a return address label. Caster has a copy of this, too. It is now almost 2 months! Does UPS continue using this Center as they did not complete the service by returning package?

"Lord, you knew before we shipped these antique pieces  that this would happen. We are caught in time and space and you are in the eternal.  You know exactly where they are.  These antiques are going to give greater glory to your Son through Mary when used in rosaries. I say this, not for your benefit but mine!” I held the pictures up the Lord and gave them back him. I thanked him in advance for his work! (Felt this was directive from Him)

+VISION+
I began to receive repeated vision (7 times - I am thick headed) of my arm through a mail slot in a door.  In my hand was the missing box. The Lord would say, ‘Let go of the box’ (I thought I had but did each time He asked!) Then he would add, ‘Release the box because you cannot pull your hand through the narrow slot while holding the box.’

APRIL 23rd
We told our UPS man, Tom and he encourage us 'never mind the 800 number' get ahold of Dawn at the local UPS center".  We did.  She sleuthed it out, called the P & S Center in CA., talked to a new man (new owner) and he said, "it is here!” From there it went to the Caster and is in process as we speak. "Jesus, we trust in you!"

MATTHEW 21:21-22
21  Jesus said to them in reply, "Amen, I say to you, if you have faith and do not waver, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be done. 22  Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive."
