This playable, pliable, huggable doll from our Playful Saint Doll collection is here to befriend children and encourage them to get to know this saint as a friend and role model. The 18" soft-bodied doll is American-made, incorporating a unique molded rubber head with hand-painted features and soft rubber extremities. Its fabric costume is wonderfully personalized with accessories that describe this saint's authenticity and relevance in time and place. What a one-of-a-kind gift for Catholic children and doll collectors of every age!
In 1531 a "Lady from Heaven" appeared to a poor Indian at Tepeyac (whom we know as Saint Juan Diego) and identified herself as the Mother of the True God. An image of herself imprinted miraculously on his tilma, a poor-quality cactus cloth that should have deteriorated in 20 years but shows no sign of decay 469 years later and still defies all scientific explanations of its origin.
