Pilgrimage and connecting with Mary of Bondi.

If the faithful accept Mary of Bondi, they’ll want to connect with her. But how?

Most of the world’s Catholics live on other continents, too far removed from Australia to find it easy to visit. And the COVID virus has made it even harder to make a pilgrimage to Bondi.

And if people did come, what would they see? There is nowhere to display the original, and Mary of Bondi is small: crowds would make it hard to get close and have a personal experience.

The answer that works for the greatest number is to let people connect with Mary of Bondi directly in their own lives via faithful reproductions of the original. That is why Mary of Bondi figurines are available for purchase on this website. 

The practice of honouring Mary by venerating her image goes back to the 3rd-century AD. In that light, Mary of Bondi figurines join a long line of artworks that the faithful can use in their devotions, an extension of a tradition that goes back 1,700 years.

Formed from solid metal, Mary of Bondi figurines are themselves eternal, heirlooms that can be passed from generation to generation for centuries to come.
