"Catholic" Hawaiian Shirts.
The front of the medal of Saint Benedict is stamped with a cross on which is superimposed the letters CSSML on the upright beam and NDSMD in the cross beam. The letters stand for the Latin words Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux: Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux which means "May the Holy Cross be My Light: Let Not the Devil be My Guide."
The letters CSPB in the 4 angles around the cross stand for Crux Santi Patris Benedicti, the Latin for "Cross of the Holy Father Benedict."
Around the outer edge of the medal are the letters V.R.S.N.S.M.V. -- S.M.Q.L.I.V.B. which stands for the Latin Vade Retro Satana (Begone Satan) Nunquam Suade Mihi Vana (Never Suggest Vain Things to Me), Sunt Mala Quae Libas (What You Offer Me is Evil) Ipse Venena Bibas (Drink your own Poison).
At the top of the medal is stamped the Benedictine motto, "PAX" meaning "PEACE." On the back of the medal is the figure of Benedict holding a cross and the Holy Rule. On his right is the poisoned cup which broke when he made the sign of the cross over it. On his left is the pet raven carrying away the loaf of poisoned bread. Inscribed above the cup and raven are the words Crux S. Patris Benedicti - meaning "Cross of Holy Father Benedict."

We are passionately Catholic. You'll find truth and beauty in our magnificent products.
Our mission is to share our faith through fashion.
MerSea Designs is committed to bringing you beautiful, well-designed, and quality apparel and accessories.
MerSea Designs is all about - reflecting our faith in everything we do and everywhere we go. Evangelize, without even saying a word. Quite literally wearing our faith on our sleeves.
Why are we so outspoken about our Catholic faith? It's because we are in love with our faith and want to share that love!
We want to reassure our supporters that when they choose to buy from us, their money will not be funneled into anti-Catholic efforts. Unfortunately, many businesses today support causes that stand in opposition to Catholic teachings.
When you shop with us you are supporting a large family (not a large corporation) that lives and believes in the same values as your family. You're also supporting a small family apostolate that donates a portion of its earnings towards pro-life and pro-Catholic organizations.
Thank you for your patronage, we are humbled by your prayers and support.
Very reasonable prices for products of such quality! I have a few of the catholic button up shirts, I'm always getting the best compliments about them.

MerSea Designs is a Catholic family-owned and operated small family apostolate. Through our website and in-person pop-up events we have met a countless number of wonderful people and serving them has been a pleasure. We believe everything we do should be done for the greater glory of God. We donate a portion of our sales to Pro-Life and Catholic charities.
MerSea Designs is a made-up conjunction of "Mermaid" and our love of the ocean - "the Sea". While acknowledging the gifts of Grace and Mercy that we receive daily.
Christina Chidley, designer for MerSea Designs, has always enjoyed arts & crafting of all kinds - sewing, painting, photography, etc. She has a not-so-secret addiction to craft stores and all the treasures they hold! As a self-proclaimed mermaid, Christina doesn’t get out on the water as much as she used to. These days find her landlocked, tending to the needs of her growing family, teaching catechism classes for a small homeschool co-op, and designing for you.
We can also do Custom Designs. Have a project in mind? We love to make personalized, one-of-a-kind gifts. Contact us by hitting the Drop us a line button. Let's brainstorm! What can we make for you? No project is too small. No minimums. Ever.
