#atelierLeda's Medallion Necklace Collection ✼••┈┈┈••✼••┈┈••✼••┈┈┈••✼ This is a medallion necklace of St. Teresa of Jesus, the patron saint of the sick, headaches, orphans, and lace makers, and a mystical Doctor of the Church who devoted herself to monastic reform. † St. Teresa of Jesus (St. Teresa of Avila) † (Teresia Abulensis) St. Teresa of Avila (1515-1582) was born into a devout Catholic family in Spain and grew up with a strong love for God from a young age. As a girl, she longed for martyrdom, and there is a heartwarming anecdote that she ran away from home with her brother, saying, "Let's go to Africa to go to heaven." She eventually entered a convent, but her initial monastic life was materially comfortable, and she struggled spiritually. However, in prayer, she was deeply moved by the cross of Christ and gradually experienced true conversion. Seeking a deep union with God, she began a reform movement that emphasized a strict life. She endured many difficulties and misunderstandings, and she reformed the Carmelite Order and established the "Discalced Carmelites." Her spirit of valuing prayer and silence is still passed down in many monasteries. Her letters and writings, written through dialogue with God, are read around the world as spiritual guides, and she was the first woman to be named a "Doctor of the Church." St. Teresa of Avila was a woman who entrusted everything to God with deep prayer, faith, and gentle humor. Her medallion necklace will be a charm that stays close to those who seek hope in God's love even in hardship and seek peace of mind. St. Teresa's way of life still teaches us the "depth of God's love." ✼••┈┈••✼••┈┈••✼••┈┈••✼ 《Medallion》 St. Teresa of Avila 20 x 15mm 《Cross》 Jesus Christ 10 x 12mm 《Size》 40cm + 5cm adjuster ♱‧⁺ ⊹✭˚.
