St. Brigit of Kildaire

 
St. Brigit of Kildaire, by the hand of Matthew D. Garrett
St. Brigit was born into slavery, and was converted by St. Patrick to Christianity. She is known for great compassion, and often miraculous acts of charity. She later became the abbess of the Kildaire Abbey, which in turn became a center for Pilgrimage.

This 10" x 12" icon is in the private collection of Fr. Jacob Myers.
