Saint Bernadette wood rosary with 6 decades

Praying the Rosary with a St Bernadette wooden rosary with six decades

This wooden rosary is closely connected to the spirituality of Saint Bernadette Soubirous, the young visionary of Lourdes. Between February and July 1858, she witnessed eighteen apparitions of the Virgin Mary in the grotto of Massabielle. During these encounters, the Rosary held a central place: Bernadette saw the Virgin Mary moving the beads of the Rosary while praying.

With its six decades of wooden beads, this rosary invites meditation on the mysteries of Christ’s life through the prayer of the Rosary. The natural shades of the wood give the rosary a simple and authentic character, echoing the humility and faith that marked the life of Saint Bernadette.

St Bernadette medal and Ex Indumentis inscription on a wooden Lourdes rosary

The centerpiece of the rosary shows Saint Bernadette on the front. On the reverse appears the inscription “Ex Indumentis”, a Latin expression meaning “from the garments.” This phrase recalls the Catholic tradition of contact relics: objects that have touched clothing or places associated with a saint become signs of spiritual closeness.

The medal therefore recalls the humble life of Bernadette, who later entered the Sisters of Charity in Nevers. Her message remains simple and powerful: prayer, conversion of heart, and trust in God.
