Blessed Chiara "Luce" BadanoHoly Medal on 24" Chain
A new saint's medal of a beautiful and courageous young Christian teen. As a 9 year old she was inspired to join a spiritual renewal movement in the Catholic Church for young people known as the Focolare Movement. At age 16 she was a vivacious, cheerful and active teen who loved hiking, tennis, music and hanging out with her friends, when she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of bone cancer. For 2 years she underwent treatments of surgery, chemotherapy, and pain and suffering, accepting of God's great plan for her life. "If you want it, Jesus, I want it too" was her constant prayer.
Chiara is truly a modern saint - she died at age 18 in 1990 and was beatified in 2010.
Photos of her show the "Luce" or Light of her countenance which was simply beautiful. Such a great young saint!
The 1" oval nickel silver medal has the image of this inspiring young woman who is a wonderful role model to today's modern tee
ns.
On the back of the medal are her own words "Embraced Pain makes one free." Comes with a 24" continuous stainless steel chain, plus a prayer card, gift bag and tissue paper. We always include extra prayer cards of our choice, although if you send me a message telling me your favorite saint or Catholic devotion I will include that card(s) if I have it.
Blessed Chiara is proof that sanctity is possible in today's youth!
The prayer cards which come with our rosaries, medals and pictures are home-made, created using a "greeting card" program on a computer and printed in full color on nice quality paper. Although they are not like the usual smaller professionally printed prayer cards, most of our customers prefer them since they are like a pamphlet with 4 "pages" and several images, prayers, patronages and often other information about the saint or Catholic devotion.
