St Andrew Avellino (Patron for High Blood Pressure) – Rose Petal Prayer Card
This handcrafted Prayer Petal Card is dedicated to St. Andrew Avellino, the patron saint of those suffering from high blood pressure, strokes, and sudden illness. A devoted priest and reformer in the 16th century, St. Andrew was known for his deep discipline, tireless prayer life, and powerful sermons that called people to greater holiness. Despite his fragile health, he remained fervent in his service until his final moments—collapsing at the altar while celebrating Mass, a moment that symbolizes his complete devotion to God.
Saint Andrew Avellino was an Italian priest known for his piety and dedication to the spiritual welfare of his community. Born on November 30, 1521, in the town of Castronuovo di Sant’Andrea, Italy, he was raised in a devout Catholic family. After completing his studies in law, Andrew initially pursued a career in the legal profession; however, he experienced a profound conversion that led him to enter the priesthood. He was ordained in 1547 and dedicated himself to a life of service, focusing on the pastoral care of his parishioners and the promotion of spiritual growth within the community.
Throughout his life, Saint Andrew Avellino was known for his deep prayer life, commitment to the Sacraments, and his efforts to reconcile individuals with God through confession and spiritual guidance. He became a member of the Theatines, a religious order founded to reform the clergy and promote the spiritual renewal of the Church. His ministry was marked by a strong emphasis on the importance of humility, charity, and the need for personal conversion. Saint Andrew was also known for his miraculous works and the ability to inspire others to lead more virtuous lives. He passed away on November 10, 1608, and was canonized by Pope Clement XI in 1712. His feast day is celebrated on November 10, and he is recognized as a patron saint of those who are in need of reconciliation and spiritual guidance. His life continues to inspire many in their pursuit of holiness and commitment to serving others.
