Agia Anna – Carved Wooden Amulet – Mount Athos

Description

Carved Wooden Pendant Amulet with Saint Anna

A wonderful wood-carved amulet from Mount Athos with a relief representation of Agia Anna.

It is an elegant & handy handiwork made in linden or cherry wood, by monks with great skill in wood processing. In a relatively small size and with a well-thought-out construction (thanks to the cord on top), it can be placed anywhere in the house, in the car or even in a bag, so that the believer feels that he always has the Grace and protection of the Saint close to him.

At the same time, it can be a very beautiful gift for the people we love.

On the back is the exact name of the representation.

Saint Anne (9 December)

Saint Anne  was the mother of the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ.

According to Orthodox tradition, Saint Anne came from the tribe of Levi. Her father, who was a priest, was named Matthan and her mother Mary. Saint Anne married Joachim in Galilee and was entitled to have the great honor and happiness of having a unique daughter, the mother of the Savior of the world.

After St. Anne weaned the Virgin Mary and dedicated her to God, she spent the rest of her life fasting,  praying and giving alms to the poor. Finally, she peacefully surrendered her righteous soul to God, inheriting the eternal goods.
