Our St. George Oxidized Medal is a symbol of bravery and fearlessness, just as Saint George, one of the most prominent military Catholic saints, showed. According to tradition, the patron saint was a Roman soldier under the Emperor Diocletian, who was known for executing Christians. The emperor issued an edict that each soldier should offer a sacrifice to pagan gods and that Christian soldiers would be arrested. Saint George renounced this edict and declared himself a Christian, announcing his worship of Jesus. Diocletian attempted to convert his favorite soldier, but Saint George never accepted. The emperor executed him for his refusal.
The valor of Saint George the Victorious is very impressive and Christians must follow his example by being unafraid to declare their faith. Made of lightweight aluminum, our Saint George Oxidized Medals are religious gifts that symbolize the importance of standing up for faith. Let this St. George Oxidized Medal by Discount Catholic Products remind you to be brave and righteous when faced with a dilemma.
