THE FOUR WAY MEDAL
One of the most popular types of religious medals is commonly known
as the Four-Way Medal (4-Way Medal). This one medal combines the bulk of four
or five medals into one convenient piece. Individually the medals would be
heavy to wear and costly to buy, but together they form a simply beautiful
pendant. Arranged in the shape of a cross, the Four-Way medal can vary in
appearance, however the most popular form includes a Sacred Heart of Jesus
medal, St. Christopher medal, St. Joseph medal and the Miraculous Medal. Some
Four-Way medals that are designed for First Communion or Confirmation gifts may
have a chalice or dove at the center of the cross. The reverse side of the
medal will often contain the inscription �I am a Catholic, please call a
priest.� This traditional message is included in case of emergency so
first responders will know to call a priest to administer the Sacraments.
