a mother's mite

The Widow's Mite
James C. Christensen

"And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, . . . and he saith unto them, . . . this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury. For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had . . ."
Mark 12:42-44

The Mother's Mite pendant is a symbol of selflessness and generosity. It is a constant reminder that you aspire to give your all. From humble beginnings, both the mite and the pearl represent the best within us.

Let your best be enough!
