St. Hannah, the patron saint of poverty and childless people, is the mother of the Prophet Samuel. After years of barrenness, she prayed to the Lord asking to concieve a child. When she did, she named him Samuel and dedicated his life to the Lord. Her feast day is December 9. The St. Hannah medal, approximately the size of a penny, is crafted from the finest sterling silver. The front of the medal bears an image of St. Hannah with her son Samuel encircled by her name. The backside of the medal has been left blank to allow for personalized engraving. We offer personalized engraving here at St. Patrick's Guild for the reasonable price $9.95 for two lines.
