St. Pius X as the patron of the Society of Saint Pius X, SSPX – a Traditionalist Catholic group named in his honor. Pius X’s attitude toward the Modernists was uncompromising.
In his papacy, Pius X worked to increase devotion in the lives of the clergy and laity, particularly in the Breviary, which he reformed considerably, and the Holy Mass. Besides restoring to prominence Gregorian Chant, he placed a renewed liturgical emphasis on the Eucharist, saying, “Holy Communion is the shortest and safest way to Heaven.”

About Bliss Christian Jewelry
Sterling Silver St Pius X Pendant
Our Sterling silver medals are at least 92.5 percent pure silver. Copper is typically combined to improve the metal’s hardness and durability without compromising the quality and look of the silver.
Sterling Silver medals are marked with a quality stamp to ensure the content of the silver. Federal law mandates that the quality stamp must include the maker’s mark. You will find either “Sterling Bliss” or “Sterling BLI” on the back of our medals – both acceptable quality marks.
14 Karat Gold Filled St Pius X Pendant
Our new 14 Karat Gold Filled has the look and feel of solid 14 Karat Gold but at a fraction of the price without sacrificing the beauty, durability and long-term wear. 14 Karat Gold Filled is a solid layer of gold bonded to the front and back of the medal. In upgrading to 14 Karat Gold Filled, we are more than doubling the amount of gold in our medals to 10% 14 Karat.
14 Karat Gold St Pius X Pendant
Our Solid 14 Karat Gold is composed of 58.3 percent pure gold and is ideal for fine jewelry. Other alloys, such as copper, are mixed in with the gold to give more of a red warm hue. This also gives the metal strength. Since gold is a natural element, it is very durable. We do recommend removing the jewelry if it may come in contact with chemicals. To clean gold jewelry, use warm water and detergent-free soap and a soft brush.
