Because every piece of wood develops differently, no two boxes will display exactly the same grain pattern or coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the holy elements have been used, the box can remain as a Christian keepsake, prayer-box, or small container for medals, rosaries, prayer cards, and other devotional objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eHoly Water from the Jordan River\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first vial contains \u003cstrong\u003ewater from the Jordan River\u003c\/strong\u003e, the river associated with the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist.

Bethlehem remains one of Christianity’s most important pilgrimage destinations, closely connected with the Church of the Nativity, Shepherds’ Field, and the events surrounding the birth of Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor centuries, Christian pilgrims have brought home small reminders of sacred places as tangible connections to the geography of the Bible. This carefully sealed vial allows the soil to be preserved and displayed without being removed from its container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7530;\"\u003eFranciscan Incense from the Holy Land\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe third vial contains \u003cstrong\u003eFranciscan incense from the Holy Land\u003c\/strong\u003e.
