St. Lawrence is Patron of Chefs and Comedians. Memorial: Aug 10. Lawrence was the archdeacon and treasurer of the Church during a time when practicing the Faith was banned. When his superiors were captured, he took the wealth of the Church and dispersed it among the poor. At his execution, he was asked by the authorities to hand over the riches of the Church, so he brought a large number of Rome’s poor with him.
Made in the USA. Details on jewelry may vary, dependent on size of medal chosen. "14K Gold Filled" refers to a process by which gold is bonded to a base medal, with a much higher gold content than Gold Plate. It is considered a life-time product, as the gold layer will not quickly wear off, as it will in electroplated products.
