Sterling Silver Crisis Pregnancy Center Cross Pendant Necklace 18"

I am very involved with several Crisis Pregnancy Centers in my home state of Arizona; I am the prayer chairman for this year's gala. Did you know that over 14,000 teenage girls become pregnant each year in Arizona alone? This always presents tremendous challenges to the young girl and her family, and too often, she is pushed, by overwhelming pressures it seems, to make a tragic choice.

Crisis Pregnancy Centers across the US save lives and protect futures. I designed this pendant with a life preserver and a rope on it. It symoblizes that we are the "lifeline" that saves and celebrates the life of both baby and mother.

Care
With proper care, your fine quality silver will last a lifetime. To minimize scratches and other damage, store your silver jewelry in a cloth pouch or in a separate compartment in a jewelry box. Avoid exposing silver to household chemicals when cleaning with bleach or ammonia, or when swimming in chlorinated water, as these chemicals can damage silver. Regular cleaning of your silver items will prevent tarnish and keep your silver bright and sparkling. Tarnish is most easily removed when it first becomes visible with a silver polishing cloth. If there is a lot of tarnish build-up use polishes formulated specifically to remove tarnish. Wearing your silver often is the best way to prevent tarnish from building up.

Given all this and the rising price of silver, this is quite simply a good investment all around.
