Saint Brigid Rosary Beads

Our Saint Brigid Rosary Beads with the image of Saint Brigid in the center is magnificent.

St. Brigid of Ireland was born the beautiful daughter of a powerful Irish Chieftain. St. Bridget or also spelled Brigid became a nun. She renounced her beauty, praying to become ugly, so her many suitors would be turned away and was completely devoted to relieving the misery and hardship of the poor. The traditional woven cross is said to have originated during a visit St. Bridget made to a dying Chieftain in which she wove it from rushes on the floor to show the significance of Christian faith. The woven rush cross has become synonymous with St. Bridget. St. Brigid of Kildare is the patron of Ireland, new born babies and of children with unmarried parents.
