Holy Medal on chain
Patron of Pharmacists and Students,

I love the look of this medal.  It has that soft vintage-look finish and a very nicely-detailed image of St Gemma Galgani holding a cross, lilies and the Passionist emblem.   "Pray for Us" and "Italy" are found on the reverse. The medal is made in Italy and is nickel silver.  The medal is attached to a 24" continuous stainless steel chain which is great to slip on and off over your head without worrying about a clasp.  Comes gift boxed and with a St Gemma Galgani prayer card plus a gift bag and tissue paper!
Especially nice gift for someone entering college, middle or high school, or leaving home for the first time - the time when society often tests a teen or young adult's values.  Also perfect for any pharmacist, pharmacy student, drug store manager, drug researcher or someone in related professions; or for anyone who suffers from back or head pain.
Also Known as the "Saint of the Passion of Jesus" and the "Gem of Christ", St Gemma Galgani was a lovely young woman who led such a hard life; she was a stigmatist and visionary who died of tuberculosis in 1903 in Italy.  She saw her Guardian Angel daily and was also subject to visits from the devil who tempted her to spit on the cross or break a rosary.  Since her father was a pharmacist, she is the patron saint of pharmacists and druggists, and also invoked for help for young people to avoid and resist temptation.
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.
