CalendarApr 2009
There are many ways in which God shows us the beauty of His creations -
In the sky-Beautiful clouds, brilliant sunsets, many-hued rainbows, bright moon and twinkling stars;
On the Earth -Beautiful Mountains, deep valleys, broad rivers, verdant trees, many-coloured flowers;
And under the earth, beautiful, sparkling and valuable gemstones.
Tradition has it that certain gemstones have become associated with certain months of
the year.
This month's gemstone is Diamond.
The picture of this beautiful pink diamond, held in a pair of tweezers, has been provided by the Australian Argyle Diamond Co., and we thank them for their generosity.
Argyle pink Diamonds are very rare, and have been sold for over a million dollars per carat.
