John Paul II relic?

[pyro_alchemist]

Several years ago I was given a rosary by a religious sister, now deceased who said that it was blessed in Rome by Pope John Paul II. I don’t think it was actually given her by the pope because although it is of good quality and was made in Italy, the crucifix is not a replica of the crucifix on JP2’s crosier so it was probably just blessed in a general audience. When John Paul II is canonized will it be considered a third class relic?

A third class relic is something that has touched either a first or second class relic, so I’d say no.

Probably not… BUT, take it to your parish priest and ask him if there is a reliquary in the church, and if there is, ask him if he would be willing to touch your rosary to the saint. Then… BOOOOMM: 3rd class relic! God Bless!
