He is a saint whose intercession is requested for \nchildren (and unborn children in particular); childbirth; mothers (and expectant mothers in particular); motherhood; \nfalsely accused people; good confessions; lay brothers; and Muro Lucano, Italy. Gerard was born as Gerardo Maiella on \nApril 6, 1726 in Muro Lucano, Italy. He was the son of a tailor who died when Gerard was 12, leaving the family in \npoverty. Gerard tried to join the Capuchin order, but his health prevented it. He was accepted as a Redemptorist lay \nbrother serving his congregation as sacristan, gardener, ostiarius, infirmarian, and tailor. When falsely accused by a \npregnant woman of being the father of her child, he retreated to silence; she later recanted and cleared him, and thus \nbegan his association as patron of all aspects of pregnancy. He was reputed to bilocate and read consciences. His last \nwill consisted of the following small note on the door of his cell: \"Here the will of God is done, as God wills, and as \nlong as God wills.\" Gerard died on October 16, 1755 at Caposele, Italy of tuberculosis. He was aged 29. St. Gerard \nMajella Annual Novena takes place every year in St. Josephs Church, Dundalk, Ireland. This annual nine day novena is \nthe biggest festival of faith in Ireland.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"alivia-danny","offers":[{"title":"Pewter \/ 1 x 1 IN","offer_id":48868015571097,"sku":"101684-308633","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/3510\/4921\/files\/gp_42hgy_101684_1567181601.jpg?v=1786553452","url":"https:\/\/aliviadanny.com\/products\/saint-gerard-medal-with-18-inch-curb-chain-p101684","provider":"Alivia \u0026 Danny","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
