Help support this page with a purchase of a pipestone cross pendant.  These proceeds help to support the costs of the website page, travel expenses, research materials and other costs related to understanding the Native side of Father Baraga's work. 
 
Each pipestone cross is hardcarved and quarried by the Native Populations.  As a result each stone will be unique in pigment, color variations, and texture.  This cross was purchased from the Keepers of the Sacred Tradition of Pipemakers who have helped to keep the tradition of pipestone carving alive for the Native populations.  The native pipe is an important element to those who are Catholic Natives as well as traditional.  
 
The red and pink stones come from the quarries in the United States.  The black stone comes from the Pipestone quarries in Canada.  Thank you for your support.
