St. Tarcisius Receiving the Eucharist (BL 02) Postcard

St. Tarcisius Receiving the Eucharist (BL 02) Postcard

Variously identified as a layman, a deacon, or—most often--a young acolyte (accounts vary), St. Tarcisius of Rome (mid 3rd century) is venerated for his devotion to the Blessed Sacrament. + Here, St. Tarcisius is depicted down in the catacombs of St. Callixtus in Rome receiving the Eucharist for distribution to imprisoned Christians during the Valerian persecutions. On his way to the prison, he was set upon by a pagan mob or gang of ruffian boys and stoned or beaten to death for refusing to surrender the hosts he was carrying. + St. Tarcisius is patron saint of First Communicants—especially boys making their First Holy Communion, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHCs), and altar servers. + Feast: August 15 + Image Credit (BL 02): Antique image of San Tarsicio, Mártir de la Eucaristia, [Saint Tarcisius, Martyr of the Eucharist], originally published by the Maison Bouasse-Lebel—Lecéne & Cie, Paris, France, No. 5445, late 19th-early 20th century, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera. This is just one in the publisher’s series of devotional prints illustrating St. Tarcisius’s story. Interest in this saint was rekindled and popularized with the publication of Nicholas Cardinal Wiseman’s internationally best-selling novel ‘Fabiola: A Tale of the Church of the Catacombs' (1854). See especially: Chapter XXII (The Viaticum).

I joined Postcrossing a few months ago and wanted postcards to represent my state well. I found them on Zazzle. I purchased numerous cards and was impressed with all of them. Excellent! The colors are beautiful. The cards have the exact look I wanted. I couldn't be happier.
