Saintlet: Saint Dymphna

Keep a constant reminder of the peace and kindness of God in the midst of any suffering with our Saint Dymphna Saintlet. These modified Tiny Saints feature a fastener on the back that snaps into your favorite pair of clog-style shoes or our Saintlet bracelets.

Dymphna was an Irish princess who suffered at the hands of her mentally ill father. Dymphna fled to Gheel, in Belgium, where she used her wealth to build a hospital. Today, Gheel is a sanctuary of kindness for those suffering from mental illness.
