I was wondering if there were any Methodists that use prayer beads ?
I'm curious about trying prayer beads sometime..
And if so where can I find some?

I use Anglican prayer beads. I believe you an order them from Cokesbury. But there are also several groups that sell them online. I have a set from the following. The make Rosaries. But will also make the bead set in the Anglican bead format on request. RUGGED ROSARIES by CordBands . These bead sets are quite sturdy.

I found mine from someone that lives where I use to.. do you want her link?

Sure, sounds good. I'm not buying anything right now (Christmas shopping MUST be done this expensive month), but will be useful to have when I do.

Prayer beads come in all prices. You can also find instructions online how to make your own with some beads you buy at a local craft shop and fishing line if you need to keep it inexpensive.

Thank you, I will have to look into it. I am not exactly crafty, but if it's easy enough even I can manage it, I'm sure ;)

Yes, there is probably $5 involved in glass beads, smaller ones to separate the ones on which the prayers are said, a cross or crucifix, and whatever kind of cord is used to string them all. Fishing line will not hold up forever, but for a set that is an introduction to the idea of Anglican Prayer Beads, it will do.

Agreed that fishing line doesn't last in the long term. I had a sets made like that break after a while. But, as it was cheap to make, it was cheap to fix. :)

Someone who finds they use the prayer beads a lot probably needs to eventually invest in a more rugged set.
