Orthodox prayer ropes are more than just devotional tools — they are companions on your spiritual journey. Whether used for the Jesus Prayer or quiet meditation, a well-made prayer rope keeps your focus on God and helps calm the mind.
At Orthodox Depot, you’ll find beautifully hand-tied prayer ropes in traditional Orthodox styles. Made with durable black wool or soft cord, many feature knotted beads, small wooden crosses, or accent colors to mark the decades.
Prayer ropes are often used with the repetition of the Jesus Prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner." The repetition, guided by the knots, allows the soul to enter a state of peaceful contemplation.
These prayer ropes also make meaningful gifts for friends and family — especially those starting their spiritual journey or celebrating a milestone in the Church. Available in various lengths and designs, each one is crafted with prayer and care.
