Saint Medal: Oxidized Silver 1" H

Saint Apollonia was born in the third century and lived in Alexandria, Egypt. She spent her entire life preaching the word of God and risked persecution for her faith.

In 249 AD, Saint Apollonia was finally captured and brought before a pagan court to be tried. When the judge asked her name, she courageously replied, "I am a Christian and I love and serve the true God." Saint Apollonia's persecutors became enraged and turned to torture. She stood firm in her faith and refused to give up during the painful ordeal of having her teeth smashed with pincers and then knocked out. The persecutors then told her that if she did not deny Jesus, she would be thrown into a raging fire. Rather than deny her faith in Jesus, she jumped into the burning fire herself. When the pagans saw how heroic she was, many were converted to Christianity.

Saint Apollonia is recognized today as the patroness of those who suffer from dental disease or toothaches. Her feast day is February 9th.

Saint Apollonia, Pray for Us.
