This lovely medal shows St Bridget or Brigid of Ireland with chains around her wrists and her hands clasped in prayer.
St Brigid was the daughter of an Irish pagan named Dubthach and one of his Christian slave women, Brocessa. Brigid grew up working in her father’s dairy and was known for her generosity to the poor, giving away her food, clothing, and even her father’s sword. As an adult St Brigid lived by herself in a cell beside and oak tree where she could meditate and pray. This place was called Kill-dara or cell of the oak and became the town of Kildare. She founded the first monastery for women in Ireland and was known for her amazing miracles. She died of old age in 523.
The medal was cast in sterling silver from an antique medal in the Rosa Mystica Collection so it shows all the beauty and history of the original piece. It comes with a matching holy card in an organza gift bag, ready for gift-giving, and was made in the USA.
St Brigid is the patron of:
Babies
Midwives
Doulas
Chicken farmers
Nuns
Poets
