Souvenir of Ordination Card - Vintage Religious Greeting Card for Priestly Ordination #3512428 (License: Personal Use)

This antique-style greeting card, titled “Souvenir of Ordination,” features a central illustration of a chalice with a radiant host, flanked by wheat stalks, grape clusters, and thorny branches-symbolizing the Eucharist, sacrifice, and Christ’s Passion. Below the image, a scriptural quote from John 15:16 (“It is not you who have chosen me, but I who have chosen you”) reinforces the vocation theme. The card rests on a white marble surface beside a minimalist glass vase holding green stalks, evoking reverence and simplicity.

Typically used as a commemorative keepsake or gift for newly ordained priests, deacons, or seminarians; often displayed in churches, homes, or sent as a formal blessing. Matches user intent for religious memorabilia, Catholic sacramental gifts, or historical ecclesiastical art.
