This masculine accessory is a great gift for Catholic men. Made of geniune leather and with the St. Benedict medal, they'll be armed for spiritual warfare with the powerful prayer and blessing of St. Benedict! This makes a great Father's Day gift for Catholic men or teen boys receiving the sacrament of Confirmation.
The St. Benedict medal has long been regarded as a powerful medal, not becuase of the object itself, but because of the prayer for the protection from evil that it invokes. It's God's authority and protection that carries the real power over evil when one entursts themselves into His loving care and protection.
St. Benedict Wristband | Genuine Leather
St. Benedict Medal Front
One one side of the medal there is an image of St. Benedict holding a book, “The Rule of St. Benedict” in his left hand, and a cross in his right hand. To one side of him is a raven, and on the other side of him there is a cup. Encircling the medal are the Latin words, “Eius in obitu nostro praesentia muniamur,” which means, “May we, at our death, be fortified by His presence.”
St. Benedict Medal Back
The back of the medal has a cross.
Along the vertical bar of the cross are the initials “CSSML,” standing for “Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux,” or, “May the Holy Cross be my light.”
On the horizontal bar of the cross are the initials, “NDSMD,” or “Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux,” or “Let not the dragon be my overlord.”
In the interior angles of the cross are the initials, “CSPB,” standing for “Crux Sancti Patri Benedicti,” or “The Cross of our Holy Father Benedict.”
There is an additional inscription at the top of the cross, usually the word “Pax,” meaning “Peace”
Encircling the medal on this side is an abbreviation:
“VRSNSMV,” meaning “Vade Retro Satana, Nonquam Suade Mihi Vana,” or “Begone Satan, do not suggest to me thy vanities.” Following these words is another abbreviation: “SMQLIVB,” meaning “Sunt Mala Quae Libas, Ipse Venena Bibas” or “Evil are the things thou proferrest, drink thou thy own poison.”
