THECA FIRST CLASS RELICS ST. ELIZABETH QUEEN OF HUNGARY
Elizabeth of Hungary, T.O.S.F, (1207 - 1231) was a princess of the Kingdom of Hungary, Landgravine of Thuringia, Germany (Heilige Elisabeth von Thuringen), and a greatly venerated Catholic saint who was an early member of the Third Order of St. Francis, by which she is honored as its patroness. Elizabeth was married at the age of 14 and widowed at 20. After her husband’s death, she sent her children away and regained her dowry, using the money to build a hospital where she herself served the sick. She became a symbol of Christian charity after her death at the age of 24 and was quickly canonized in 1235 by Pope Gregory IX. She is a patron of hospitals, nurses, bakers, brides, countesses, dying children, exiles, homeless people, lace-makers, and widows. Her Feast is celebrated on November 17th. Round theca, 1.5 inches in diameter, with a glass front containing one relic of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary on a red silk background with a handwritten label. An authentic written in Latin accompanies the relic.
