This St. Benedict Crucifix is made in Italy with exquisite craftsmanship and features the St. Benedict emblem on both the front and back. The crucifix is two-tone, with a gold-plated cross and a silver oxidized corpus, and includes a blue enamel inlay within the scroll-style edge. It measures approximately 3" x 1 7/8" and includes a jump ring, making it suitable for larger rosaries or to wear as a pendant.
The purpose of this medal/crucifix is to call down God's blessing and protection upon us wherever we are, and upon our homes and possessions especially through the intercession of Saint Benedict. By the conscious and devout use of the medal, it becomes a silent prayer and reminder to us of our dignity of followers of Christ.
