1 COMPANY INFORMATION My Saint My Hero was founded in 2008 and is based in San Pedro, California. Co-owners: Amy D Ambra and Christine Rich. CONTACT My Saint My Hero 2515 S. Western Avenue San Pedro, CA / 772 / 1100 WEBSITE SOCIAL MEDIA

2 OUR STORY My Saint My Hero is more than a jewelry company; it is a vehicle to realize our shared mission that everyone on earth was put here to make the world a better place. We work to fulfill this mission through our wearable blessings that remind us of the power of prayer and by sharing the stories of the saints. Co-founders Amy D Ambra and Christine Rich share the story of the company s humble beginning; Allow us to be the heroes of today. We are all called to be saints and share our stories as inspiration to others. This was the mission Amy received in prayer while traveling through Italy in 2006 which changed her life and the lives of those around her. She embarked on the journey to share the stories of the saints by creating a line of jewelry featuring saints and their virtues. In 2008, Amy was led through prayer to call on an acquaintance, Christine Rich, to join her at My Saint My Hero. Together, we share My Saint My Hero s wearable blessings with you to bring into your life The Gift of a Blessing. Christine

3 OUR MISSION My Saint My Hero was founded on the belief that God is real, prayer works and love heals. Our pieces are wearable blessings that remind us that we are loved. My Saint My Hero is a community inspired by God to transform lives and make the world a better place. Crafted in love and prayer, our wearable blessings empower women through meaningful work. Our prayer is that these pieces help awaken souls to live in the presence of God and know: I AM TRUE, I AM GOOD, I AM BEAUTIFUL... I AM BLESSED.

7 COLLECTIONS // PRODUCT INFORMATION (CONTINUED) Blessing Breathe Serenity BLESSING BREATHE SERENITY BENEDICTINE BLESSING BRACELET Wear this bracelet on your wrist to remind yourself that God has given you a mission to make the world a better place, and that you can choose to fulfill that mission by using your hands to do good. M Y S A I N T M Y H E R O BREATHE BRACELET In time of need, run your fingers along the simple string; grasp the medal and breathe. By simply focusing our attention on taking a breath and linking that breath to God, we can dispel chaos and go back to our spiritual roots. M Y S A I N T M Y H E R O SERENITY BLESSING BRACELET May you experience the feeling of Calm and Peace. M Y S A I N T M Y H E R O FRONT FRONT FRONT Each one of us has the chance to make our world a better place every single day. We do so by choosing to do what is right and good, and choosing to avoid what is wrong. God has given us an internal sensor that helps us seek good and avoid evil; it s called our conscience. He has also given us the Holy Spirit to keep our conscience strong and clear, but we still find it hard to say no to temptation and sin. This bracelet is an extra help in your battle to make the world a better place and follow the path to heaven. It s like a secret weapon, and it is special for two reasons: The St. Benedict medal depicted on this bracelet has both the image of St. Benedict and the Benedictine Cross. The Benedictine Cross is one of the Church s most powerful symbols of divine protection. It was created in the mid 600 s as a symbol of the spiritual truths that enabled St. Benedict and his many followers to resist evil and do good. The Holy Cross be my Light, is written in Latin on the front of the cross, which is used all over the world to help spread Christ s Kingdom of love and light. The images of the St. Benedict medal are rich in symbolism with each detail carrying a specific meaning. If you research and learn, you can discover the meaning of all of the signs and letters on the medal; let them teach and inspire you. Wear this ancient symbol to help protect your soul, your loved ones and your home from anything contrary to God s goodness. Father John Bartunek, LC ThD RCSpirituality.org Made with love in the small pilgrimage town of Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina; may you be blessed by the prayers of those making each piece and the love and prayers of My Saint My Hero. Your purchase enables us to use the power of giving to help transform lives and make the world a better place. Thank you for choosing to purchase The Gift of a Blessing that keeps on giving. C Sometimes, life seems suffocating. All the confusion and conflicts, loneliness and the darkness, all the stress and the drowning noise - the visual noise, the emotional noise, and the noise noise...sometimes, we just feel like our souls can t get enough air. These bracelets are for those times. One simple string. One simple medal. One simple reminder: God alone is enough. At the beginning, it was with a breath that God gave us life: Then the Lord God formed the man out of the dust of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Genesis 2:7 And at the New Beginning, when Jesus rose from the dead, it was with a breath that He gave us a fresh start: After saying this, Jesus breathed on them and said: Receive the Holy Spirit... John 20:22 Breath is life, and life is Christ: I am the way, the truth, and the life. (John 14:6) When you feel the pressure of this fallen world squeezing the joy out of your life, stop, BREATHE. Make space again for God. Father John Bartunek, LC ThD RCSpirituality.org Made with love in the small pilgrimage town of Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina; may you be blessed by the prayers of those making each piece and the love and prayers of My Saint My Hero. Your purchase enables us to use the power of giving to help transform lives and make the world a better place. Thank you for choosing to purchase The Gift of a Blessing that keeps on giving The Benedictine medal depicts the most powerful ancient cross of protection, while the cord that wraps around your wrist symbolizes the Wisdom of the Holy Spirit and the embrace of Our Blessed Mother. Wear this bracelet as a reminder of the protection that surrounds you and the love that embraces you always. S E R E N I T Y P R A Y E R God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; and Wisdom to know the difference.
