Description

Saint Charbel was a Maronite monk from Lebanon. He was born May 8, 1859, and died December 24, 1898. He was beatified December 5, 1965 and canonized October 9, 1977.

The chaplet is made up of five sets of beads, three red, one white and one blue. Five black beads, divide the sets. A medal of the saint connects the beads, with a single white bead following the medal and preceding the five sets. The red beads are for the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, the virtues by which religious share in the Passion of Christ. The white beads represent the Holy Eucharist, and the blue beads love and devotion to Our Blessed Mother.

A prayer card with instructions on how to pray the chaplet is included.
This chaplet includes a medal of St. Charbel, The Holy Family Center and the Sorrowful Mother Crucifix.
