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 Nicholas was born at Patara in Lycia,
a province of Asia Minor, during the third
century. His parents, who were devout
Christians and extremely wealthy, died in
an epidemic while Nicholas was still young.
He used his entire inheritance to help the poor,
the sick, and children in need. He often went
about it in secret, expecting nothing in return.
Nicholas was sent to live in a monastery and,
at the age of 17, became one of the youngest
priests ever. Before long, his charity and
generosity became known throughout the land.
Nicholas had dedicated his life to serving God
and in the early part of the fourth century was
made Bishop of Myra. It was said that he was
not just able to nurse sick children back to
health; he could raise them from the dead.
He died in 342 and and is recognized today as
the protector and patron of all children - sick or
healthy. His feast day is December 6th.
Saint Nicholas, Pray for Us.
