Dear Bramante Studio,

We just received our vestments from you today and they are great! I just wanted to tell you how much we appreciate your attention and care in this matter. I am grateful for the extra effort you exerted on our behalf.

We are very pleased with the professional and helpful services you rendered to us. Thanks again.

We hope to continue doing business with you again.

Peace from the Franciscan Community in Bessemer! God is truly blessing us.

Thank you for the beautiful craftsmanship that took an idea and created a beautiful vestment for Eucharist. It's truly a work of art—regal yet elegant and simple in appearance.

I look forward to having it worn for the first time at Easter. Be assured of my love and prayers for this beautiful vestment from Bramante Studio.

Gratefully,
Fr. Noel Danielewicz

Dear Abraham,

Your sculpture, Mary Pieta, arrived while I was out of town. I returned Friday morning, and immediately uncrated it. It was very well packed and arrived in perfect condition.

I was deeply touched by its beauty and powerful expression. It is everything I had hoped it would be. I thank you and congratulate you for creating a powerful piece of art that I am sure will inspire people for many years to come.

The over-all design is quite striking and expressive. Mary is clearly holding the dead weight of her son's body, resting on one knee and supported by her whole body. The position of the two heads is quite moving. The people are clearly African-American, but without being over-stated. The facial expressions are powerful. Even the feet are truly moving. And the print of the nail is clearly present in Jesus' left hand. Thank you for creating such a powerful work of art for our church.

Sincerely,
Rev. C. Thomas Jost

Dear Bramante Studio,

We received the corpus and everyone is just so pleased with it! As Fr. Mario said, "it is beautiful beyond words." He asked me to thank you for the work you did.

Please congratulate all the artists involved, especially Abraham. They did a brilliant job!

Now we are waiting for the wood of the cross, and once it comes we will have the official dedication with the Bishop.

It was wonderful to have the corpus in the church for the feast of Christ the King. When the Bishop comes, we'll take pictures and send them to you.

Thank you so much. It truly is beautiful. The church has gained a great deal of what it was lacking—a more profound sense of sacredness.

Dear Bramante Studio,

I've been a priest for 15 years. No other vestment in all those years created a stir like the stole that you designed and made for me. No one ever noticed my vestments. I've never received so many compliments. Everyone in all four of my churches commented on its beauty and the work that had gone into it.

I appreciate the time you spent with me in the design that I wanted. You were so patient and kind. I'm impressed with your creativity and good taste for liturgy.

I'm proud to have such a one-of-a-kind stole. It was the smartest item I have purchased for Mass and myself in all my years of ministry. In fact some Chaplain friends and priest colleauges want me to bequeath the stole to them! I told them that it goes with me. After all, in that heavenly line—my stole will stand out among so many plain ordinary ones. It is apparent that even here on earth it stands alone in quality and beauty. Your company stands alone. No doubt that when it's time to purchase something, I'll be giving you a call!

Blessings,
Fr. Jim Jaeger

Dear Bramante Studio,

Shortly after receiving the concelebration set of white vestments and the accompanying sanctuary drops, we launched right into our Anniversary Mass, Catholic Schools Week, Scout Sunday, Lent, Easter, First Communions and our Parish Festival. Except for Lent, all of these liturgical events featured the work of Bramante Studio.

The response from our parishioners has been overwhelmingly positive. Each weekend, more people are returning from their winder down south and commenting how beautiful are the new vestments and sanctuary decorations.A comment last Sunday, "Wow! The church looks great...and you guys match for a change."

On behalf of the good people of Presentation Parish, we want to thank you for your excellent work in helping us choose a design and colours that complements wonderfully our beautiful church. Our gratitude to you and Abraham for you patience with us.

Sincerely,
Fr. Charles V. Lachowitzer, Pastor
