14k White Gold Round St. Peregrine Medal (18MM)

Peregrine Laziosi was canonized in 1726, and has been named the Patron Saint of those suffering from cancer. He was born in Forli, Italy around 1265. He politically opposed the papacy but after experiencing the forgiveness of St. Philip Benizi, he became a priest and later established a Servite community. He spent his life dedicating himself to the sick and the poor. He imposed on himself the penance of standing whenever it was not necessary to sit. His wound became so serious that the local surgeon decided to amputate the leg. The night before the surgery, Peregrine prayed before the image of the crucified Christ, and when he awoke, the wound was healed and his leg saved. Peregrine’s trust in God therefore serves as a model for those dealing with sickness. The National Shrine of Saint Peregrine is located at Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica in Chicago, Illinois, and a St. Peregrine Shrine is also at The National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother in Portland, Oregon. The Feast Day of Saint Peregrine is May 4.

It's fitting this is crafted of gold; it's said spiritual energy and power are activated and awakened by wearing or praying with gold. Gold represents the spiritual treasure gained by transforming the spirit; it also represents love in the Bible. This is earth friendly as it is made with the Refined Karats system certified by Scientific Certification Systems' (SCS) strict requirements. Proudly made in America with a green process of ethically, environmentally and socially responsible production processes of water, waste and energy management; this is from 100 percent recycled Karats.

The rising price of gold makes this, quite simply, a great investment all around.
