This rustic leather card holder belongs to our Coraggio collection, and features our St. Michael the Archangel design. This card holder is perfect compact size to take on every trip. With a 3.5 x 2.5" pocket, it's perfect to hold your business cards, credit cards, or even some cash! Crafted from 100% soft, genuine leather, each one comes in differing shades and patterns - no two are the same. They are designed and engraved in our Steubenville, OH workshop.

Hand-crafted in Honduras, these leather card holders were created by the individuals at Lazarus Artisan Goods. Through this ministry, men and women are taught to make high quality goods while receiving sustainable wages, health-care, and an education. Their goal is to not only help their workers financially, but to teach them to find dignity and purpose in all that they do. Both we at Catholic to the Max and Mission Lazarus thank you for helping support our teams of talented individuals.

[Coraggio Design - St,  Michael the Archangel Symbol]

This ancient symbol has been used in Christian homes, churches, and even tattoos for centuries. Sometimes called the “butterfly cross,” this symbol is a monogram of the Ancient Greek spelling of St. Michael the Archangel’s name - ΜΙΧΑΗΛ. This symbol has been found in the entrances to ancient buildings and churches to protect those who entered, and even on or around baptismal fonts. In more recent years, this symbol has been found as a tattoo on an ancient Sudanese mummy, likely for protection. With a rich history within the church, this symbol has endured through the years as one of protection and safety. 

The banner beneath the main symbol reads “Quis ut Deus,” which means “Who is like God?” in Latin, which is the meaning of St. Michael’s name.

Once, as Pope St. John Paul II battled illness, a Capuchin friar stood below his window with a fist in the sky and shouted, "Coraggio! (Courage!)" Inspired by this story, we at Catholic to the Max wanted to create a product line devoted to inspiring others to have courage and spark real life conversations about Christ. With this in mind, we've created a new set of designs that are Catholic, engaging, but also a little unclear. By stirring curiosity in others, our hope is when someone asks you about your shirt, journal, bracelet, etc, you have the opportunity and courage to proclaim the message of Jesus. You can learn more about the Coraggio brand by visiting our new website: livecoraggio.com.
