This beautiful, wallet size - 2 1/2" x 4 1/2", laminated Saint Barachiel the Archangel holy card, bordered in gold, depicts Saint Barachiel, whose name means, "Blessings of God," holding a bread basket or a staff, both of which symbolize the blessings of children that God bestows on parents. Barachiel is also the chief of the guardian angels may be prayed to for all the benefits which the guardian angel is thought to confer if one is not praying to the guardian angel directly, but as an intercession. He is seen as an official Saint in Eastern Orthodox tradition as well as some Catholic traditions, in particular a Patron of family and married life. He is also seen as the angel assigned by God to watch over converts (also called "adopted children of God") to assist them in their lives. On the back of the card is printed the Novena to the Archangel Barachiel. Artwork from the Milan, Italy, Studios of Cromo NB. Sold in packs of 25.
