THE CRUCIFIX MEDAL OF ST. BENEDICT

Among the numerous medium Holy Mother Church offers to bring help to the dying. She certifies The Cross of a happy death and the Medal of St. Benedict. The Popes have granted a Planary Indulgence to this combination. To facilitate the gaining of this Indulgence, we have the placement of the smaller cross of a Happy Death supporting the Medal of St. Benedict which is palced in the center on the back of the cross. One of the inscriptions on the Medal brings this wish in prayer form to mond: “ejus in obitu nostro praesentia muniasmur”, “We desire you in our hour of death to be our armour by your property and presence”.
