Oil Dedicated to Blessed Gandolph
Blessed Gandolph of Binasco, a 12th-century Franciscan friar, is remembered as a man of deep humility and passionate zeal for the Gospel. Born into nobility in northern Italy, Gandolph chose to leave behind earthly riches to follow in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi, embracing a life of poverty, prayer, and preaching. Drawn by the Spirit to a more hidden life, he journeyed to Sicily where his heart found peace in solitude and service.
In Sicily, Blessed Gandolph became both a hermit and an itinerant preacher. He spent long hours in prayer, withdrawing from the noise of the world to deepen his communion with God. Yet, when called, he boldly proclaimed the message of repentance and God’s mercy to all who would listen. His simple yet powerful preaching drew many souls back to the faith. In a time when society faced great moral confusion, Blessed Gandolph called people to conversion, humility, and peace.
After a life of tireless service and deep prayer, Gandolph died in Naro, Sicily, where his body remained incorrupt, a miraculous sign of the sanctity he lived in secret. To this day, his incorrupt body draws pilgrims seeking spiritual renewal and a deeper relationship with God. He is a patron for those longing to return to God, for preachers and evangelists, and for those seeking spiritual renewal in solitude.
Our Irish Blessing Oil dedicated to Blessed Gandolph (Incorrupt) is prayerfully prepared in honor of his hidden yet radiant holiness. Each bottle comes with a prayer card seeking his intercession—for hearts burdened by sin, for souls in need of spiritual renewal, and for those longing to find God in quiet prayer and reflection.
Lovingly prayed over by the team at A Blessed Call to Love. Offer a spiritual aid—inviting you to open your heart to God’s mercy and healing grace.
May the quiet witness of Blessed Gandolph inspire you to find peace in solitude, courage in proclaiming the truth, and joy in the mercy of God who calls all souls back to His heart.
