St Catherine of Alexandria was a noble young woman of the 4th century; daughter of a governor in Alexandria, Egypt, she devoted herself to study and became a Christian. When persecutions of Christians began, Catherine went to the emperor to criticize him for his cruelty. The emperor ordered his learned advisers to debate with her about her faith; she won the debate so well that some of the advisers were converted and were subsequently put to death. The emperor tortured Catherine and then offered to have her married off; she refused, and was sentenced to death by the wheel, a cruel punishment. But the wheel broke when she touched it, and the martyr was finally beheaded.St Catherine is the patron saint of girls and unmarried women; craftspeople who use a wheel such as potters and spinners; mechanics; schoolchildren and scholars; wheelwrights; haberdashers; secretaries, stenographers, theologians, philosophers, preachers, nurses, lawyers, libraries and librarians, dying people, jurists, knife sharpeners, educators, millers and scribes. An important saint and a strong, brave woman who is a wonderful role model for today's young, strong, brave women!The prayer cards which come with our rosaries, medals and pictures are home-made, created using a "greeting card" program on a computer and printed in full color on nice quality paper. Although they are not like the usual smaller professionally printed prayer cards, most of our customers prefer them since they are like a pamphlet with 4 "pages" and several images, prayers, patronages and often other information about the saint or Catholic devotion. Thanks for looking. Visit our Ebay Store - Meadowside Country Crafts - for great religious medals and rosaries, our own great homegrown potpourri, and hand made religious flower pictures. Pray the Rosary and Divine Mercy every day for World Peace!!
