St. Emily de Rodat (1787-1852) taught children, opened thirty-eight convents in France, and expanded her services to include nursing the sick, poor and aged, visiting prisoners and orphans, and ministering to wayward women. Her feast day is September 19.
This sterling silver St. Emily medal is approximately the size of a dime and comes on an 18 inch chain, with a blank back ideal for engraving that name or special date!
