It comes on a continuous 24" stainless steel chain, which has no clasp and slips over most size heads. Comes gift boxed and with a St John of the Cross prayer card, plus a gift bag and tissue paper.St John of the Cross is considered a "Doctor of Mystical Theology". This 16th century Carmelite priest was a contemporary and spiritual adviser to St Teresa of Avila. She convinced him to reform his Carmelite order to become the discalced (barefoot) Carmelites. This was not well-received by some of his luxury-loving brothers, and he was actually imprisoned for 9 months during the controversy. However, he was victorious in the end with his spiritual reforms. St John was a great contemplative and spiritual writer and was named a Doctor of the Church in 1926. St John of the Cross is a fine role model for young people attempting to follow Christ and live simply in our shallow, material world. He is the patron saint of mystics, mystical theology, contemplatives and the contemplative life, and poets.

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.
