Sacred Relics Of The Saints: Treasures Of The Church
St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish celebrated a teaching and exposition of Sacred Relics on Tuesday, September 7. Find images or watch a video presentation by Fr. Martins.
Father Carlos Martins of the Companions of the Cross came with an extraordinary Vatican collection of over 150 relics, some as old as 2000 years.Among the treasures will be relics of St. Joseph, St. Maria Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower”), St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. A portion of the Veil of Our Lady and one of the largest remaining pieces of the True Cross in the world was on display. Those in attendance were able to examine and venerate each relic. Throughout history, many healings have been worked in the presence of relics; and thousands have occurred through this ministry. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
