Michael's Rosaries is located in Oklahoma, the heart of the United States of America. I began by making military mission rosaries. In 2008 I made a rosary as gift for a friend who was going to Rome. It was like no other rosary. My friend told me the design fit her personality exactly. That same year, I made around 30 rosaries for my family as Christmas gifts. I continued giving them as gifts, and the former priest of my parish said the rosary I made for him--which took his heritage into consideration--was "perfect."
The positive reactions to my rosaries inspired the creation of this online store. To date, I have not duplicated any design. That is my goal--to make each one unique.

I hope you find a design here that fits your personality or one that you would like to give as a gift, a gift meant to bring someone closer to God. If you have a design idea in mind and want me to make it for you, contact me to discuss the details.
