My friends and I visited the grave of Julia Greeley last week. There is a group that is – what’s the correct word? – propogating her cause for sainthood, but she is not officially venerable, blessed, or saint… YET 😃

I was finishing up the Rosary on the morning of June 7, and just feeling so lonely with my son at his dad’s house… divorce is just plain evil. And I’ve praying and fasting for my ex-husband’s conversion for soooooooo long now 😦

Suddenly, I thought of “Miss Julia” and just started pouring out my heart to her and asking her intercession. There was such a sense of comfort in that moment. I mentioned it to “the girls” at choir rehearsal that evening:

“Have you ever heard of Julia Greeley? I was thinking of visiting her grave today.”

“Yes, we have! Did you know today is the anniversary of her death?”

I told them what had happened at the end of my Rosary, and then we all sat there amazed at the “coincidence”.

I had already arranged to visit her grave the following day with my son’s godparents – his godfather is part of the group spreading the word about her holiness of life. When we went to visit her grave, it was like meeting an old friend. I took two of the holy cards my son’s godfather had given me and touched them to her grave, and I left a tiny paper scroll with a prayer intention in the ground next to her headstone. Incidentally, there were flowers and little tokens all around her grave. She is clearly remembered and venerated by a number of people in the area.

If it be God’s will, may she be raised to the honor of Saint quickly.

Just wanted to share another brush with the Communion of Saints 😃

Here is a picture of Julia Greeley holding a precious little one, and a picture of her headstone:

I asked for one yesterday and I received a confirmation email that they received the email after I sent it. Then, I got an email form a Missionaries of Charity Sister telling me that they’ll send me one. By the way, thanks for sharing this! Mother Teresa is a very inspirational woman, and having a relic of her is great!
Greetings of Peace and Love!
Is there any way to obtain a relic of Blessed Maria Sagrario of St. Aloysius Gonzaga?
 
My dear friend in Christ,
All the three that you have requested did not reply to me through email. They have sent me the relics along with the reply.
Greetings in Peace and Love!

Hi! I’m Kino from Philippines and a member of Knights of the Blessed Sacrament.
Is there any way so that I can obtain relics of Saint Brother André Besette, Blessed Emilie Gamelin & Blessed Isidore Bakanja? I hope you can help me.

Thanks in advance and God bless!
 
friendsofsanroque@hotmail.com is a valid email address.

As I made my search in Google before, the site was: fosr.webs.com/

I requested last May 2011. The reple took a month, and informed me that there’s trouble in CanadaPost regarding the employees and perhaps their salary. It affected the postal system there.

Things normalized eventually last August, and I did notify them. They said that they will send the third class relic.

I did receive that before August ends.

Well, what could I say about the actual relic. It’s a plain piece of paper, containing a third class relic on the top (white piece of cloth, which is touched to the tomb of St. Roque), and 2 pinches of particles of soil at the center and the bottom part, taped to prevent the sand from being removed.

Both particles of soil, if I remember was from Montpellier in France, and that Our Lady of the Tables Church.

I have to laminate the paper with the contents to ensure that everything’s intact.

I believe the person who created the site and is involved with FoSR is a Filipino.

I sent an email to the Legion of Mary regarding their candidates for beatification. I read these 3 before but never requested literature to them.

I also tried to request again to Fr. Kapaun Guild. Fr. John hasn’t replied but I hope and pray that he considers my request.
Greetings in Peace and Love!

Not all Filipinos are like what you think. Maybe some but mostly they just want to help ignite your faith in God. I’m also a Filipino Citizen. 🙂

Peace of the Lord be with you…
 
I too am a filipino and always have relic even 1st 2nd and 3rd class i spread devotion to them to help the cause and not all filipinos are like the others who sell relics i especially give them thanks and god bless:)🙂
 
I could help you in this following saints but this requires recommendation letter from priests:

Saint John Bosco
Saint Dominic Savio
Saint Gemma Galgani
Saint Maria Goretti
Saint Gabrielle Possenti
Blessed Edward Poppe
Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity
Blessed Michael Rua

i think we need more time to talk because it needs cathecism.
Greetings in Peace and Love!

Hi! Can you help me too to obtain 1st or 2nd class relic/s of the Salesian?
I hope you can… God bless… 🙂
 
I requested a relic of Mother Teresa and received a 3rd class relic embedded in a Holy Card/Prayer Card. 🙂

I’m a bit confused on the previous quote, but I do have a personal apostolate which involves the distribution of Catholic material in various locations. I receive my items for free and distribute these for free (even my travel expenses by jeepney, since I don’t drive).

Anyway, whether if I posted this before or not, I was able to receive a few months ago the prayer cards from Father Kapaun Guild.

I read earlier that you mentioned KBS. Therefore you reside in Pampanga, if I am correct.

Mentioning also the Salesian saints and blesseds, it appears that it’s hard to request a relic to the Bosconian family, either in DBA or at MHCS, which are both located in Mabalacat. Well, only third class relics were allowed to be touched to the right hand of St. John Bosco, when he arrived in DBA last January 2011,

yup, I’m from Pampanga. Glad you know about KBS. If I’m not mistaken only in Pampanga used the term KBS for the Altar Server or Knights of the Altar…
Yeah, it so hard to have even one of the Salesian Blessed or Saint, that is why I’m hoping that there would be someone to help me obtain here in CAF…
when St. John Bosco arrived here in Pampanga, can’t even go near to the relic…
Thank you for the information, God bless…

Is there any way so that I can obtain relics of Saint Brother André Besette, Blessed Emilie Gamelin & Blessed Isidore Bakanja? I hope you can help me.

Thanks in advance and God bless!
goforgoal posted earlier in this thread regarding Brother André Besette. You can find more at forums.catholic-questions.org/showpost.php?p=7787879&postcount=12 I emailed the person in charge at the email provided by goforgoal, and received the same packet, information flyer, prayer card and relic. Try doing a Google search for the saints in question, and see if there is an official website set up for promoting them. There would be a postulator in charge of relics, and contact information for them listed somewhere on the website.

Hi goforgoal!

I thank you for the private message you’ve sent me… Five of them immediately respond to my email and send me some prayer cards, books/booklets and relics. I hope you can also help me to have also some items and relics of the upper mentioned Saints, Blessed and mothers. I’ll be an honor for me if you will reply to my post or private message… Thank you and God bless…
 
Dearest CAF members, All of the Glory, Honor, Praises, and Thanksgiving should be given to God, Our Almighty Father and in His Angels and His Saints.

Like, jcian12 stated on page.2, post # 22 the Holy and Blessed Eucharist is very important too, so when and if you can please visit Our Lord in the most Holy Eucharist.

I may have to do this particular post in two parts (to share the pictures that is)

Anyways, on February. 10th, 2012 Friday I sent a request email to: The Office of the Postulator General of the Carmelite Order and I was truly and wonderfully blessed the following:

A Holy card of St. Teresa of Avila (no Prayer)
A Holy card of St. Magadena de Pazzi (no Prayer)
A Holy Prayer card (in Latin or Italian not too sure) of St. John of the Cross
A Holy Prayer card (in Latin or Italian not too sure) of Liberata Ferrarons
A Holy Prayer card of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (St. Edith Stein)
A Holy Prayer card of St. Teresa of the Andes of Jesus
A Holy Prayer card Blessed Hilary Pawel Janszewski
A Holy Prayer card of Blessed Titus Brandsma
A Holy Prayer card of Blessed Isidore Bakanja
A relic of Sr. Maria del Patrocini de St. Jose
A relic Prayer card (in Latin or Italian not too sure) of Mother Maria Crocifissa Curcio
A relic Prayer card (in Latin or Italian not too sure) of Angelo Paoli
A relic Prayer card of Blessed Titua Brandsma
A relic Prayer card of Blessed Isidore Bakanja

Some of the Saints or I should say Saints in the making I don’t recognize so it is really nice getting to know them – almost like getting to know a new found friend in Heaven.

Receiving these items have truly been a blessing to me and may I add an answer to my Prayers being that I have a Heart for the Carmelites.

God bless the Carmelite Saints.

I just got enrolled with the brown scapular last month and actually I am really interested in the carmelite spirituality… how can I obtain relics of carmelite saints/blessed for devotion?
 
Dear All,

God bless and May Our Lady Holy Mother be with us always!!!
 
Hello everyone!

I have enjoyed requesting relics from all of the websites posted on this topic and have received the St. Andre and got a reply from Mother Teresa’s.

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could request a relic of Saint John the Baptist who is my patron saint. I know that would be kind of hard because all there really is now is the skull which may be debatable as to its authenticity.

Thank y’all!!!

Hi!

Can you share the email address or mailing address of St. Andre?
I want also to have relics of this Saint.

Thank you.
 
I ordered St. Andre’s relic from this e-mail for free:

Mario Lachapelle MLachapelle@osj.qc.ca

I received it in the mail in less than a week of requesting it.

God bless!!!
Thank you for replaying my quote,

I just did wonder, I sent them a request last June 30. Till now I don’t receive any email from them. I thought you used another email address of them.
