Begga made a pilgrimage to Rome and upon her return, she took the veil, and built 7 churches at Andenne on the Meuse. There she spent the rest of her life as abbess. Her feast day is on December 17 and is the patron saint of infant diseases, cure of hernias and of the Beguines.

Care Instructions
My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.
Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.
Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
