Product Overview

Small St. Benedict Medal

 

This necklace is a round, double-sided pendant. 

The front features St. Benedict holding a cross in his right hand and his rule for monasteries in his left hand.  Around the edge of the medal it reads:  Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur  (May we be strengthened by his presence in the hour of our death.)

The back of the medal features a cross with (Latin) letters that represent words.  Down the cross, in English it means:  May the holy cross be my light!  May the dragon never be my overlord!  Across the cross it means:  The Cross of [our] Holy Father Benedict. 

Around the back of the medal are letters representing in Latin:  Begone Satan!  Never tempt me with your vanities!  What you offer me is evil.  Drink the poision yourself!

The silver plated pendant is 5/8" in diameter and hangs on an 18" light weight silver plated chain with a clasp.

This necklace is from the HJ SHerman Company and comes in a deluxe gift box.

Lisa’s Catholic Treasures

For half a century, I’ve collected Catholic-themed wood carvings, figurines and nativities. I began selling them to family and friends via open houses 15 years ago and added an online side to the business eight years back. Now, I’ve gone far beyond figurines and nativities and I have hundreds  of different items available for sale.

Online Catholic Store

Our online store is just the place to shop for gifts or items for your own home.  We have the basics:  saints, angels and Holy Family figurines, rosaries, crucifixes, and jewelry.  You will also find items related to the sacraments - Baptism, First Holy Communion, Confirmation, as well as Advent, Christmas and Easter.

We also carry religious books from board books, storybooks, young readers, adults and bibles for all ages.  Bibles include storybook and graphic novels for young people, those designed for First Holy Communion, middle school age, high school age, and adults.  You will find New American, New Catholic, NRSV-Catholic Edition and Spanish Bibles.

There is a variety of toys available on the website as well.  We carry a large selection of Shining Light Dolls and jigsaw puzzles with a scattering of plush, saints, activity sets and more.

No matter what type of Catholic treasure you’re looking for, you’re likely to find it right here on this website.

My Background

My interest in Catholic figurines and carvings can be traced back to my teenage years when my parents brought back a woodcarving of the Madonna and Child from their trip to Europe to give to my grandparents. I searched for that same style of carving for years, but eventually received the original when my father died. But the quest has guided me and led me to start this business of providing Catholic treasures to family, friends, and new friends.

My husband and I are lifelong Catholics from the Midwest, who met at a church in Colorado. We’re still active in our local parish community more than four decades later. My husband, three grown children and their families have all helped with the business.
