Welcome to the world of Tiny Saints—a joyful way to help children and families learn about the lives and stories of faithful Catholics who have shaped the Church. Measuring just one inch tall and made from durable rubber, these miniature charms are designed to go wherever faith goes.
Josephine Bakhita endured unimaginable suffering from a very young age. As a child, she was kidnapped, enslaved, sold, and brutally mistreated. Despite these horrors, her life would become a powerful witness to forgiveness, faith, and God’s transforming grace.
After gaining her freedom, Josephine entered religious life and became a Canossian Sister. Rather than being consumed by bitterness, she spoke with remarkable mercy, once saying that she would kneel and kiss the hands of her captors because their actions ultimately led her to Christ. Her life stands as a testament to healing, dignity, and the redemptive power of God’s love.
This Tiny Saints® charm honors a saint whose story brings hope to those who have suffered and reminds us that grace can triumph even in the darkest circumstances.
