Moon garden statue

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a place that I could get a 2-4 foot tall outdoor staue of St. Clare of Assisi? I have an idea for a garden that I would like to try.I want to make an infinity symbol shaped garden with St. Clare at one end surrounded by a moon garden and St. Francis at the other end surrounded by sun-aspected flowers. I got the idea from their nicknames; Brother Sun and Sister Moon. The only thing I can't find so far is the statue of St. Clare. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi, I saw this posting and thought I would give you a couple of sites to look at. I don't know what size you were looking for or what your budget is but maybe these will give a direction. Hope they help.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen
Just found this prayer of Francis of Assisi while looking at that first link Nikki, what a wonderful thought to muse about this spring under the beauty of the full moon, surrounded by nature.............that must have been what St Francis was doing when he prayed it.

I'm glad you're including him in your garden. I'm sure he'll oversee it from now on, including, of course, St. Clare.

Maybe I'll borrow your idea when I start my moon garden tis spring.
