"'Adsum' is a Latin word meaning 'to be present.' This simple figure of surrender signifies humankind's response to the call of God... receptivity... surrender... waiting... expectation. Adsum could be the young Mary saying her world-changing 'Yes' for the whole human race; Or it could be any of us whispering our own 'Yes' to our calling."

Not just for Advent, this warmly human Mother and separate child makes a meaningful gift all year - births, showers, transition moments, religious occasions. It is especially poignant during Advent which means "coming." Those weeks before Christmas are traditionally a time of preparation, pregnancy, and quiet waiting. Mary with an empty lap can “wait” on a mantel or center of an Advent wreath until Christmas Eve when the infant Jesus might arrive into her arms with a family ceremony.

”Perhaps this depicts the first day of school or it can be a constant reminder that the great challenge of parenthood is to pour oneself out for the child – and yet ultimately to let go and marvel at the independent life you have had the privilege to serve.

One of Trina’s most enduring and favorite creations. A true heirloom, wedding gift, or nativity, which allows each person to find a figure with whom to identify; sure to become a family favorite!

”Today’s boy or girl, father or mother, can each find a figure with whom to identify, and each has a gift for Christ. The gifts, a tiny lamb from the shepherd, a basket from the little girl, a dove from the boy, all are separate pieces. The set is meant to be used by the family. Children can come much closer to the mystery of Christmas by placing their own gifts before the Child, perhaps at the end of Advent.”

Hand cast in Hydracal, finished in either White or the original Terra Cotta. Please indicate which color you prefer in the special notes section of the order form.

”While in my 30’s, I had a precious New York period. I lived at the Grail center in Brooklyn and cooked breakfast for about 35 young women who were in training to go to other countries in professional service – a sort of early Peace Corps. After this I was free the rest of the day to explore the city and undertake all sorts of art learning.

”I remember lugging the original white, Carrara marble for Prayer back and forth on the subway from Brooklyn to the New School in Manhattan where I had the privilege to work with one of the 20th century’s greatest sculptors, Jose de Creeft. We had a very compatible sense of sculptural beauty which was very affirming.”

”Queen of Peace”

Tall and noble; a “Theotokos”; God Bearer - which is the term the Eastern Church used for Mary.

”Mary was strong; Her pregnancy and giving birth in a stable, her flight as a refugee into Egypt, and the participation in the Crucifixion of her only son is not adequately expressed by a ‘clinging’ Madonna. Here she is as the throne, bearing God to the world. Big stuff to think about! May we all be God Bearers!”

Regina Pacis is 24 inches high and is the color graystone. She comes in two different materials - please see options 1 and 2 below. (Due to variations in computer monitors, the sculpture color you see on your screen may vary from the actual color.)

”Martin was the son of a poor Peruvian woman and Spanish Conquistador. With humor and faith he overcame huge obstacles and became a healer, Dominican lay brother and saint able to communicate with animals and perform miracles. My personal attachment to Martin came at a particularly painful time when my young son felt abandoned by his father. Martin’s story (he was also abandoned by his father and yet turned out so very well) was needed encouragement for us both. I think of all those children without fathers who can use such an example.”

”The original cement piece was created years ago when my brother was patching something and had some cement left over. Not being one to waste anything, I grabbed a tall tin can to use as the core and with a wooden paddle, pushed the cement around on top of it. I kept paddling, pushing and stroking until this Big Hug appeared! I’m delighted to have this finally in production.”
