Her \nfeast day in the West is December 13, by the unreformed Julian calendar the longest night of the year; she is the \npatron saint of those who are blind. Lucy is one of the very few saints celebrated by the Lutheran Swedes, \nFinland-Swedes, Danes, and Norwegians, in celebrations that retain many indigenous Germanic pagan pre-Christian \nmidwinter light festivals. She is one of seven women, excluding the Blessed Virgin Mary, commemorated by name in \nthe Roman Canon.\n\nHer acta sanctus tells that Lucy was a Christian while Diocletian was persecuting and martyring Christians. She \nconsecrated her virginity to God, refused to marry a pagan, and had her dowry distributed to the poor. Her would-\nbe husband denounced her as a Christian to the governor of Syracuse. Miraculously unable to move her or burn her, \nthe guards stabbed her and killed her.\n\nThe oldest record of her story comes from the fifth-century accounts of saints' lives. By the sixth century, her \nstory was widespread. St. Aldhelm wrote an account of her life, and the Venerable Bede included her story in his \nMartyrology.[4] In medieval accounts, St. Lucy's eyes are gouged out prior to her execution. In art, her eyes \nsometimes appear on a plate that she's holding.","brand":"Picturesongold","offers":[{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":68028954706010,"sku":"65714-337325","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":68028954738778,"sku":"65714-337326","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":68028954771546,"sku":"65714-117354","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":68028954804314,"sku":"65714-117355","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":68028954837082,"sku":"65714-327085","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stainless Steel \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":68028954869850,"sku":"65714-337327","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":68028954902618,"sku":"65714-117356","price":129.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":68028954935386,"sku":"65714-327087","price":129.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold Plated \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":68028954968154,"sku":"65714-327086","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":68028955000922,"sku":"65714-116371","price":499.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 2\/3 x 2\/3 IN","offer_id":68028955033690,"sku":"65714-117351","price":499.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":68028955066458,"sku":"65714-116372","price":599.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 3\/4 x 3\/4 IN","offer_id":68028955099226,"sku":"65714-117352","price":599.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k Yellow Gold \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":68028955131994,"sku":"65714-116373","price":699.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14k White Gold \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":68028955164762,"sku":"65714-117353","price":699.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/5711\/3946\/files\/pog-saint-65714-pe_p3xa928473_1437084162.jpg?v=1794341442","url":"https:\/\/www.picturesongold.com\/products\/saint-lucy-medal-p65714","provider":"PicturesOnGold.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
