Beeswax, Song, and Wood – A Collaborative Art Piece for Lent

We are excited to share this beautiful collaboration with a couple of our favorite craftsmen – Illuman Apiary and Wes Sam-Bruce.

Here’s the description:

This Lenten Set is a collaborate project completed by musician Tim Coons, beekeeper KJ Tencza and woodworker Wes Bruce. Together they have created an experience that will enlighten, deepen and enhance your Lenten practice. The set comes with a wooden base, hand-crafted by Wes, which holds the candle and two glass, corked jars: one with olive oil and the other with palm ash. The candle is made from 100% beeswax, slightly scented with myrrh and infused with palm ash. (The candle has a burn radius the size of a silver dollar, leaving a solid wax shell as to not drip or leak onto the wood.) A digital download of Tim Coons’ album of spirituals and modern songs called “Potomac” accompanies the set. Along with the album is a devotional written by Tim Coons that leads you through the music with Lenten prayers and readings.

Set Includes:

Handmade Hexagon Wood Candle Holder made by Wes Bruce

Hexagonal Hand Poured Beeswax Candle by illuman Apiary

1 Vial of Oil

1 Vial of Ash

Digital Download of Potomac by Tim Coons with devotional and boat charm

 

This will be the table centerpiece for our Giants & Pilgrims family throughout lent! We plan on lighting the candle each night as part of our lenten routine as a practice of prayer and centering.
