Vatican
Treasury Gives Nod of Approval to Nativity Stones
|
|
 |
We
are very proud to announce the acceptance of the Nativity
Stones as a part of the Vatican Treasury of St. Peters
Group. In addition the Pontifical Commission of the
Jubilee 2000 in Rome, who has included the Nativity
Stone as a product worthy to carry the symbol of the
Jubilee 2000, we are honored to be included in the
Vatrican Treasury as their affiliation validites our
efforts and confirms the quality of the product that
displays their signature. |

No
More Stones from the Cave of Nativity |

Nativity Foundation
The
Nativity Stones are limited and once all are distributed
there will be no more available. In 1963 there was
a one time renovation in the Cave of the Nativity
in Bethlehem and once these stones were shipped to
Los Angeles to Philanthropist, Stanley Slotkin, no
more stones will ever be unearthed making stones from
this Holy Site a once in a lifetime gift. We have
been assured by the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem
who is in charge of the maintenance of the Church
of the Nativity and the Cave of the Nativity. |

Cardinal
Ruini (second in command of Vatican City) was presented
with a printed dedication paper, which he read aloud
to the assembled guests.
We
are proud to announce that we, the Nativity Stones
Foundation, are one of the three donors that made
the renovation possible. This donation is one of
many that we have made over the last 4 years. The
donations we have made to different Christian denominations
total over $250,000 (see list of donations) and
fulfill the wishes of Stanley Slotkin.

Ruini, Vicar for the Vatican,

Our
pricing reflects royalties paid to either the Vatican
Treasury, Ricardo Montalban, and/or the Jubilee
2000. Donations are sent to Bethlehem and many other
churches throughout the world.
Finally,
we have a limited supply of these authentic stones
and once they are gone, they are gone forever. Make
this the most exciting season ever with the perfect
gift, a stone from the birthplace of Jesus Christ.
