After first living with an order of Benedictine nuns, Clare was called to lead a new order, the Poor Ladies of San Damiano. Known for their austere rule of life, these nuns (later called the “Poor Clares”) lived in poverty and relative seclusion. Many miracles have been attributed to St. Clare, but one of the more legendary stories of her life places an ill Clare at the center of a violent invasion by Saracen mercenaries. According to the story, Clare took hold of the monstrance holding the Holy Eucharist and held it up to her window as protection against the invaders. The invaders fled.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none white-space-prewrap\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-center para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eSt. Clare was canonized in 1255, only two years after her death.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benedicta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49976280547616,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/3203\/3824\/files\/D47814D8-CA4D-4B52-96E4-B3898AAB424D.jpg?v=1789783526","url":"https:\/\/shopbenedicta.com\/products\/clare-sterling-silver","provider":"Benedicta","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
