If you're looking for a necklace...

I just ran across this site which has some beautiful Orthodox Cross necklaces. The gold ones are pretty expensive, but the silver ones are not so bad (I like silver better anyway.)

This cross is probably the closest to what my cross looks like.

And this is what the Cross that I found in Sears (!!!) looks like, only it opens up like a locket, and you can put a written prayer inside of it. (Which reminds me of the life of Saint Arsenios the Cappadocian which I just read...People needing healing or prayers would request a written prayer from him (usually because they lived far away). They called it a phylachto, and they would wear the prayer on a necklace or close to their heart, and would be healed by the Elder's holy prayers.)

:) I know. I almost cried when I saw it there. Little blessings like that are such an encouragement.
There was also that door-to-door salesperson last summer who was showing me her books.. i invited her in and gave her a soda...she saw my Icons and said that she is Romanian Orthodox. I'm sure my face lit up like a light bulb.
