Description

A wreath of silver flowers encircles Latin text that identifies it as a twenty-fifth anniversary. Below that, an open book shows the pierced hand of Jesus on one page, and the Latin words for Obedience, Poverty, and Chastity on the page; a rosary hangs from the book. White lilies are behind the book. A verse from Psalms appears below the illustrations. The back of the card has an inscription commemorating the silver jubilee of an Alexian Brother, Brother Prosper Redel.
