Medaillon with relic's
This is a old and heavy medaillon with a relief Mother and Child, surrounded with relic's from Ulric and Rosalia. T are two relic's more, but i can't read the name on the labels. Diameter is 2.5 inch. Shipping with registered priority is 15$. I want to thank the writer of Patron Saints Index. Saint Ulric Also known as Udalric Udalrich Uldaricus Ulderic Ulrich Ulric of Augsburg Memorial 4 July Profile Son of Count Hucpald and Thetbirga; related to the dukes of Alamannia and the imperial family of the Ottos. Sickly child. Educated at the monastic school of Saint Gall; excellent student. Chamberlain to his uncle Blessed Adalbero, bishop of Augsburg. Priest. Bishop of Augsburg on 28 December 923. Built churches, visited from parish to parish, worked with the sick in hospital, set a good example for his priests, brought relics from Rome - and his good work paid off in the form of improved moral and social conditions for both the clergy and laity. When the Magyars plundered Germany, they besieged Augsburg. Due to Ulric's courage, his leadership, and his ability to organize the resistance, Augsburg held until Emperor Otto arrived. On 10 August 955, a battle was fought in the Lechfeld, and the invaders finally defeated. Some legends say that Ulrich fought in the battle, but that was impossible. After 48 years as bishop, an ill and exhausted Ulric resigned his seat, and handed the diocese to his nephew, a move which had the blessing of the emporer, but which the Synod of Ingelheim ruled uncanonical. They charged and tried the aging bishop for nepotism; Ulrich apologized, did penance, and was forgiven, the message of which reached him on his death bed. A letter circulated for a while that indicated Ulric did not support priestly celibacy, seeing it as an unnecessary burden.

Ulric was the first saint canonized by a Pope, which led to the formal process which continues today. Legend has it that pregnant women who drank from his chalice had easy deliveries, and thus his patronage of them, and for easy births. The touch of his pastoral cross was used to heal people bitten by rabid dogs. Born 890 at Kyburg, Zurich, Switzerland Died 4 July 973 at Augsburg, Germany of natural causes; buried in the Church of Saint Afra; earth from his grave is reported to repel rodents, and over the centuries, much has been carried away for that purpose Canonized 3 February 993 by Pope John XV Rosalia Also known as La Santuzza (the little saint) Memorial 4 September Profile Sicilian nobility, the daughter of Sinibald, Lord of Roses, and Quisquina. Descendant of Charlemagne. Raised around the royal Sicilian court. From her youth, Rosalia knew she was called to dedicate her life to God. When grown, she moved to cave near her parent's home, and lived in it the rest of her life; tradition says that she was led to the cave by two angels. On the cave wall she wrote " I, Rosalia, daughter of Sinibald, Lord of Roses, and Quisquina, have taken the resolution to live in this cave for the love of my Lord, Jesus Christ. " Rosalia remained apart from the world, dedicated to prayer and works of penance for the sake of Jesus, and died alone. In 1625, during a period of plague, she appeared in a vision to a hunter near her cave. Her relics were disco...
