Read more and FAQ
The devotion to the Holy Face grew from the visions of Sister Mary of St. Peter in Tours and later of Blessed Maria Pierina de Micheli in Milan, who spread the Holy Face medal in the 1940s. It honors the suffering face of Christ and asks Him to remember us.
Our medals show the face from the Holy Shroud, in sterling silver or gold over 925 silver, and the Sancta Sindon medal, which recalls the cloth kept in Oviedo, Spain. They are small enough to wear every day on a chain.
Items marked as blessed are taken from our shop in Rome to the Papal audience in St. Peter's Square, are blessed by Pope Leo XIV and ship with a holy card of the Papal blessing.
