The particular Saint Robert featured on this medal (from about a dozen possibilities) is Robert Bellarmine, patron of catechists and canonists. According to Bert Ghezzi in 'Voices of the Saints': 'He taught himself Greek and Hebrew; became a university lecturer, professor and rector; edited the Latin Vulgate; debated prominent Protestants; served as theologian to two popes; wrote so many books that he was said to publish one a week, and so on.' Yet he was charitable and compassionate, sacrificing himself and his possessions to care for those in need. The Saint Robert religious pewter statue is a wonderful gift for anyone who shares his namesake or for a confirmation candidate who has chosen his name as an example to live by.

Standing at 2.5 inches tall, the Saint Robert pewter statue is the perfect size for a windowsill, desk, or night stand and like all of the pewter saints statues you can buy at St PatrickÆs Guild, the Saint Robert pewter statue comes gift boxed for your gift giving convenience.

His feast day is September 17.
