St Angela Merici – Patron for Disabled People – Irish Blessing Oil

St. Angela Merici, an inspiring and deeply influential figure in the Catholic Church. Widely celebrated for her unwavering commitment to education and compassionate service. Born in 1474 in Italy, she experienced profound personal loss early in life. Including the deaths of her parents and sister. However, rather than succumbing to despair. Angela transformed her grief into a powerful mission to uplift and educate those in need.

Because of these early hardships, Angela developed a special empathy for the disadvantaged. She believed that everyone—especially young girls and marginalized individuals—deserved access to learning, dignity, and love. With this vision in mind, she founded the Ursuline Order, the first women’s religious teaching order in the Church. Through this groundbreaking initiative, countless lives were touched, educated, and empowered.

Furthermore, her tireless advocacy for the disabled and poor revealed her deep understanding of inclusion and human dignity. She taught that true service requires seeing Christ in every person, regardless of social standing or physical ability. As a result, her life continues to be a beacon of hope and compassion for those who strive to care for others selflessly.

At A Blessed Call to Love, we honor St. Angela Merici with our handcrafted Irish Blessing Oils. Each bottle thoughtfully prepared to reflect the values she lived by—kindness, courage, and dedication to service. Specifically, our St. Angela oil serves as a heartfelt reminder of her enduring legacy and the spirit of advocacy she embodied.

Accompanying each bottle, you will find a beautifully designed prayer card dedicated to St. Angela. This card offers a sacred moment of reflection, inviting her presence into your heart. As you use the oil, take time to meditate on the virtues she upheld—especially her unwavering love for the vulnerable and her fearless commitment to justice.

Each oil has been prayerfully blessed by our devoted team, infusing it with sacred intention. To deepen your spiritual experience, we suggest having your priest bless the oil as well. By doing so, you enhance its spiritual potency and deepen your connection to St. Angela’s mission.

Embrace the spirit of St. Angela Merici. Let her story inspire you to serve others with courage and compassion. Whether you’re caring for a loved one or advocating for those in need, may her gentle strength guide your path and nurture your soul.
