St. Charbel Relic Oil

Description

This oil originates from the Maronite Monastery in Annaya, Lebanon.  The oil is soaked in the bones of St. Charbel by the monks of the monastery and then bottled for use.

St. Charbel Makhlouf  was ordained as a priest and monk of the Maronite order in Lebanon. He sought permission and lived as a hermit from 1875, until his death in 1898. His reputation for holiness prompted people to seek him to receive a blessing and to be remembered in his prayers. He lived a simple life, followed a strict fast and was very devoted to the Blessed Sacrament. When his superiors occasionally asked him to administer the sacraments to nearby villages, Charbel did so gladly.

He died in the late afternoon on Christmas Eve. Christians and non-Christians soon made his tomb a place of pilgrimage and of cures as his body was incorrupt and oozed oil which had healing qualities. Pope Paul VI beatified Charbel in 1965, and canonized him 12 years later.

St. Charbel has more miracles attributed through his intercession than any other saint.
