Sorry, but this item is no longer available.


A beautiful rendition of St. Monica, patron saint of Christian parents and of wives and abuse victims. Living in an arranged marriage to a pagean official in North Africa, St. Monica suffered some abuse from her husband's violent temper. Her patience and prayers eventually paid off when her husband and his mother converted to the Catholic faith. St. Monica also had three children, two of which went willfully into the religious life. Augustine, however, proved to be more difficult. After 17 years of praying, Augustine was baptized shortly before his mother died. St. Monica is a reminder that with prayer we can transform our lives and those of our family and live closer to Christ. 

Item Details:

Prayer on the mug reads "Saint Monica, patron of Christian parents, we entrust to your protection, the children whose names you can read in our hearts. Pray for them, that they may be granted strength to combat weakness, victory over temptation, guidance to resolve their doubts, and success in all their undertakings. May they enjoy good health of mind and body, see beauty and worth in all created things, and serve the lord with firm faith, joyful hope and enduring love. Amen. 

Mug holds 11 ounces. Gift Boxed.
