I Am a Catholic Medal – Please Call a Priest
A die-cast “I am a Catholic” emergency medal supplied wholesale to parishes, Catholic schools, hospital and military chaplaincies, religious-goods stores, and online resellers. Each piece is struck in Italy from durable zamak alloy and finished in an antiqued silver-tone, with sharp relief on both faces and a soldered jump ring ready for a chain, cord, or keyring. Each medal measures 22 × 16 mm (about ⅞ × ⅝ inch), and the oxidised finish resists tarnish and keeps the engraving legible through years of daily wear. Medals are supplied in packs of 10, with volume pricing on larger quantities and a low minimum order.
This is an identification medal rather than a saint medal. The front carries a devotional scene of the Crucifixion, while the back is engraved in English: “I am a Catholic. In case of serious accident, please call a priest.” Worn with a chain or with everyday identification, it lets first responders and hospital staff know to summon a priest so the wearer can receive the sacraments — Confession, Anointing of the Sick, and Holy Communion — in an emergency.
For buyers, the medal has unusually broad appeal: parishes and RCIA programmes, Catholic schools and sacramental preparation, hospital and hospice chaplaincies, military, police, fire, and prison chaplaincies, nursing homes and elder-care ministries, the Knights of Columbus and parish societies, travellers and pilgrims, and any of the faithful who wish to carry it with their ID. Because everyone can wear one, it moves well in volume. The compact oval suits display cards, blister packs, and counter merchandising, and pairs naturally with chains or cord stocked alongside it.
As a long-established Italian-sourced supplier shipping to roughly 25 countries, we include detailed customs invoices on every international order and hold medal quality consistent across repeat batches — so your shelves stay stocked and your reorders match what sold before.
