Wearing a Saint John the Baptist bracelet necklace reminds us of his special patronage. From birth, John the Baptist was filled with the Holy Spirit and grew to be a great prophet. He prepared the way for the coming of Jesus and converted many of the people of Jerusalem.
He foretold of a man who was to be the savior of mankind - that man was Jesus Christ. John baptized Jesus and told his followers and disciples that it was now time to follow Christ as the Messiah.
His feast day is June 24th. He is the patron saint against hailstorms, convulsions, and spasms. The patron saint of baptism and convert, innkeepers and tailors.
