ROME, FEB. 12, 2010 (Zenit.org).- The faithful in Padua and pilgrims to the place of St. Anthony’s death are being given the chance to participate in a special showing of the saint’s relics.
Starting Monday and through Saturday, a glass urn with Anthony’s remains will be on display in the chapel of his tomb.
The display marks the liturgical feast of the transfer of St. Anthony, also known as the feast of the tongue. The Feb. 15 feast commemorates the first time his remains were moved, April 8, 1263, under the direction of St. Bonaventure, and the final transfer, Feb. 15, 1350.
