“In the darkness, I found light through prayer — and from that prayer, beauty was born.”

SANCTA was born from both beauty and heartbreak — from prayer, loss, and the grace that comes only through surrender.

In May of 2022, my beloved son, Xavier, passed unexpectedly. The grief that followed was deeper than words could hold. In that season of sorrow, I found myself reaching constantly for the Rosary — for Our Blessed Mother, who knew the pain of watching her own Son suffer.

As I prayed, bead by bead, something gentle began to take root. I started making rosaries — at first as a way to steady my heart and lift my tears toward Heaven. Each one became a prayer, each design a quiet reflection of love and longing offered back to God.

In time, that personal devotion became SANCTA — a space where prayer and craftsmanship meet. Every piece I create carries that same intention: that it may help another soul draw closer to Our Lord and Our Lady, especially in times of loss, hope, or transition.

The name SANCTA comes from the Latin for “holy” or "sacred". It reminds me daily that even from pain, holiness can rise; that beauty and grace can still be born from sorrow.

Each rosary, bracelet, and devotional item is made by hand and heart — lifted in prayer for the person who will hold it next.

“Made in prayer for the recipient, upon request.”
May each bead guide you closer to peace, and may Our Lady hold you as she has held me — close to the heart of her Son.

With love and prayer,
Kimberly, Founder of SANCTA

In loving memory of my son, Xavier — whose life and light continue to inspire every rosary I make.
