Saint Bernadette of Lourdes—Catholic and 48 similar items

"St. Bernadette of Lourdes" Charm / Pendant by Sue Kouma Johnson The Blessed Mother appeared to little Bernadette of Lourdes in 1858 in France and told her to dig in the dirt and drink some of the water she found. From small beginnings, a marvelous healing spring has drawn millions over the years to be cured of physical and spiritual ailments. Saint Bernadette herself was an amazingly humble servant of God, never healed of her own physical ailments. She almost died numerous times before finally passing into glory at the age of thirty-five. Mother Mary told her, "I cannot promise you happiness in this world, but in the next." Bernadette's own infirmities and great holiness caused her to be much loved as an attendant to the sick in the hospital connected with her convent. This medal I made from tiny prints of a pencil drawing I did. It is made with glass and lead free solder, available in 4 sizes. Same image both sides. Please do not wear in the shower. Chains are available elsewhere in this shop. I hope this little image helps you feel closer to our dear heavenly helper! If you want one for a key chain, I can custom make it with a thicker glass for $3 extra. Also available in larger, "Ornament" size. Let me know if you are interested, and I will post it for you. And of course, since I paint or draw the pictures, this image is also availalble as a print on archival paper. Thank you for your interest in my artwork and products. ~ Sue Kouma Johnson ~ See my shop for other original Catholic Art and Jewelry items ~ .
