As a young woman, she devoted herself to Christ as a consecrated virgin. Agatha attracted the unwanted attention of a powerful man who tried to force her away from her vow. When she refused, he had her arrested, tortured, repeatedly assaulted in a brothel, and denied food and medical attention. Accounts say that St. Peter appeared to Agatha in a vision and healed her wounds. Despite this miracle, Agatha’s persecutors continued to torture her, and she died a martyr around 251. She is one of seven female saints and martyrs included in the Roman canon of the mass.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eBenedicta Jewelry pieces are exclusively designed, sourced, and produced in the U.S.A. with high-quality materials and ethical and accredited manufacturing partners.
