Oil Dedicated to St Aelred of Rievaulx (Patron for Bladder Stone Sufferers)

Patron of Bladder Stone Sufferers, Spiritual Friendship, and Compassionate Leadership

St. Aelred of Rievaulx, born in 1110 in England, was a Cistercian monk, abbot, and one of the most beloved spiritual writers of the medieval Church. He dedicated his life to building a community rooted in charity, humility, and mutual support. Through his writings and leadership, St. Aelred taught the beauty of spiritual friendship, emphasizing that true Christian love transforms hearts and unites souls in God.

As abbot of Rievaulx Abbey in Yorkshire, Aelred led his monks with great gentleness and wisdom, fostering an atmosphere of peace and prayer. Yet his life was not without suffering. St. Aelred endured painful health conditions, including debilitating bladder stones, which caused him intense and prolonged physical suffering. He bore this illness with remarkable patience and serenity, uniting his pain to the sufferings of Christ and offering it for the good of his brothers.

Despite his affliction, St. Aelred continued to write and minister to his community, producing timeless spiritual works such as “Spiritual Friendship” and “The Mirror of Charity.” His writings reflect a tender heart filled with compassion for others, a man who understood suffering and sought to comfort those in pain.

Our Irish Blessing Oil dedicated to St. Aelred of Rievaulx is prayerfully prepared in the spirit of his gentle leadership and enduring hope. Each bottle is accompanied by a prayer card asking for his intercession—for those suffering from bladder stones and related ailments, for those in chronic pain, and for hearts longing for spiritual companionship.

Lovingly prayed over by the team at A Blessed Call to Love. Offer a spiritual support for those enduring pain, offering them a reminder that God draws near to the suffering and fills their hearts with His peace.

May the life of St. Aelred of Rievaulx inspire you to bear your suffering with trust, to seek deep and holy friendships, and to lead others with kindness, patience, and love.
