Nicely detailed statue of Saint Peregrine – Patron Saint of Cancer. Hand crafted and painted – fine details may vary. 8.5 tall with a 4.25w by 3 deep base. Imported from Columbia and made of plaster.
St. Peregrine was born in 1260 at Forlì, Italy to an affluent family. He lived a comfortable life as a youth, and politically opposed the papacy. After he experienced the forgiveness of St. Philip Benizi, he changed his life and joined the Servite order. He was ordained a priest, and later returned to his home to establish a Servite community. There he was widely known for his preaching, penances, and counsel in the confessional. He was cured of cancer, after he received a vision of Christ on the cross reaching out His hand to touch his impaired limb.
