St. Rita of Cascia medal
St. Rita of Cascia sterling silver 925 medal
One day, while living at the convent Rita said, "Please let me suffer like you, Divine Saviour". Suddenly, a thorn from a figure of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ fell from the crown of thorns and left a deep wound in Rita's forehead. This wound never healed and caused her great suffering for the rest of her life. As a result, depictions of St. Rita show a forehead wound to represent this event.
At your request we will bring it to receive the Blessing from the Holy father
