:o …Not sure where to post this, but… what’s meant by the term “third degree relic”?
Thanks.
 
Third class relics, are items that have touched the body or tomb of the saint.

Third class relics, are items that have touched the body or tomb of the saint.

**Or any other second or third class relic.

A second class relic is something the saint used during his/her lifetime.**

OK, I should’ve just went to the Catholic Encyclopedia to begin with.

First class = parts of the saints body

Second class = clothing or anything used during the saints life

Third = any other object that has been touched to the first class relic
