Prayer is an essential tool for healing and is an excellent source of comfort,
courage and strength for those who are suffering. During times of illness,
disease or a life challenge, nothing is more important than to offer prayer
and to join with others in assurance of these prayers.
In addition to prayer, the Saints protect us against harm, help strengthen our
faith and offer spiritual guidance and healing. They are our models of prayer
and their intercession helps present powerful prayers of healing to God on
our behalf.
Our new Patron Saints of Healing line offers hope and comfort to those who
seek healing through the intercession of the Saints. Each holy card and medal
set includes a high-quality prayer card that contains novena prayers specific
to the affliction, a short biography of the patron saint and an oxidized silver

Saint Lucy was born of a rich and noble family
in the year 283 in Syracuse, Sicily. Her father
died when she was young and her mother,
Eutychia, who suffered from a painful illness,
arranged a marriage for her. Growing up a
Christian, Lucy vowed her life to God.
To change her mother's mind about the marriage,
Lucy prayed at the tomb of Saint Agatha,
and her mother's illness was cured. Her mother
agreed with Lucy's desire to live for God and
allowed her to renounce the engagement.
The rejected bridegroom denounced Lucy as a
Christian and had the governor order her death.
The governor had her tortured by gouging
her eyes out, but God restored her eyesight.
The governor then ordered her to be set on fire.
Again, God interceded and she was saved.
Lucy was later martyred with a dagger.
Saint Lucy is recognized today as the patroness of
those who suffer from blindness and eye ailments.
Her feast day is December 13th.
Saint Lucy, Pray for Us.
