I was blessed recently to receive second class relic badges of Saint Leopoldo Mandic. Also, of Ven. Cornelia Connelly.
 
A few pages back I saw a first class relic picture of Saint Maria Goretti posted by paddy sham. I am interested in obtaining a relic of this wonderful saint. It does not have to be a first class of course. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you and thank you for the continuing of this thread.

First class relics are hard to find or obtain if you don’t have recomendation letter from your bishop. but some postulators give 1st classes without that kind of letter. 🙂
 
This is the 500th reply to this thread… haha:D:):extrahappy:

Advice to all:
To anyone who wants to give information about obtaining relics, please JUST PM them. DO NOT POST THE POSTULATOR’S CONTACTS and Info… JUST PM them…There are thousand of simonists that obtain relics and sell them. Just PM the info to someone you trust. CAF is very easy to google. If someone posts the info, they can easily copy it then if they got the relics, they will sell it…:tsktsk: THAT IS SIN…

God Hates simonists.

God bless us all.
 
I just want to say, for anyone interested in acquiring relics of Saints and other holy people, that really you don’t need a first class relic there to pray to a saint for their intercession, it gives no more blessing to your prayers than with no relic whatsoever. The relic is there so that when you are praying for a saints intercession, you remember their life here on earth. These relics are remnants of their life here on earth and it is a way of uniting yourself with them and not just observing them at a distance where they are glorified as greater than humans because they were humans and relics help us to realize this fact.

I also want to say that relics of Saints are just holy items that we use to unite ourselves closer to God as with sacramentals like the rosary. Therefore, you don’t need to have relics to honor the saints you just need a fervent heart to pray. So whenever you are on websites or even this thread and you see relics that you don’t have, its not necessary to keep hounding on postulators or sending multiple emails to them to send you relics. Take it as a blessing from God to receive a relic, and if you don’t receive a relic, just pray to the saints for blessing over you or pray to God for their canonization.

Above all, just pray. Venerate the saints and try to achieve great unity with God in fervent prayer and devotion towards Him. Venerate their relics as well to remember the holy lives they led and to attempt to achieve holiness in your own life as well.

Amen to this.

I also wanted to point out that if the Postulators, Vice Postulators, or whomever is distributing their blessed items say, “No.” Please don’t take it personally and know that that particular Saint or candidate for Sainthood is still Praying and interceding for you.

Yes, keep on Praying for their Beatification or/and Canonization and know that the Saints and candidates for Sainthood Pray for each and everyone of us too.

God bless,

Yes I agree,

For those seeking 1st class relics,

remember that you always receive a 1st class relic, every Sunday, everyday, in Holy Communion, Jesus is really present Body and soul and we become the custodian of the mystical body of Christ.

And as a relic is exposed for veneration, may we expose Jesus and let others see Jesus in us.

God Bless
 
There’s is nothing wrong with wanting to obtain a relic(s) as long as the veneration of the Saints does not supercede the worship that belongs to God alone. If a relic helps me to feel closer to God, then that’s a good thing.

We shouldn’t discourage others from obtaining a relic(s) if the intention behind their wanting a relic is valid. If someone were to obtain relics just to have them as part of a collection in order show them off or they think it is going to earn them extra spiritual points with God then that is not a valid reason to obtain a relic(s).

The veneration of relics whether for private or public devotion is a beautiful way that we as Catholic’s can demonstrate the communion of the saints. In my opinion the communion of the saints is something that is not understood enough by non-Catholic’s and unfortunately by some Catholic’s as well.

The topic of relic’s is wonderful teaching opportunity to enlighten others on the communion of the saints. I can understand the concern but discouraging others who want to obtain a relic without knowing the individual intention behind each heart in my eyes is a bit much.

Proper intention and understanding of relics is key. I have yet to see a post in this thread where the intention behind obtaining a relic is not centered on giving the Lord his proper due.

That’s my two cents on this matter.

God bless

I agree with you 100% totally and completely. Life is so brief, that if relics aid the devotion and holiness of a Catholic then why on earth would anyone think it appropriate to discourage this? You have to look at the spiritual side of this matter.
 
I am very fortunate for the first class relic of the Bl. Amigonian Martrys that I received today. I am having issues with my faith lately but after I have received the relic and looked at it, all the issues and doubts that I had suddenly gone and I am very grateful for it. Maybe the God had granted me peace of mind through the intercession of His saints 🙂

Thank you and God bless you for pointing this out too TempleOfTheSoul.

I truly appreciate all of the blessed materials that I have received thus far even if that means no Relic.

I think and I could be totally wrong and off base here what landon13 was trying to say is you don’t have to necessarily request First Class Relics for the Saints and candidates for Sainthood to intercede for you.

I know in the past and currently I have sent some of you Private Messages with the contact information.

However, if you don’t want me to Private Message you with the contact information please let me know by a PM – Please don’t give “hints” or “hidden messages” let me know if you no longer want me to continue to send you the contact information.

Thank you and God bless,

Many decades ago I was given a special Relic by a French-Canadian Holy Cross priest in the mid 1970’s. He spent almost twenty-five years in and around Jerusalem working and teaching in Catholic Missions close nearby to The Holy Sepulchre also working with the very poor. Upon retiring and returning to Canada nearby Montreal, I was privileged to meet and talk with him on numerous occasions for many years until he passed away in 1984.

This beloved priest I always keep in prayerful rememberance in a special way for his humble gracious patience in helping me with my Faith. A few weeks before he entered a hospital struggling with a number of ailments and passed away he gave me a relic to keep, which stays in my bible.

The Relic is an old religious card with a fine flake stone chip from the Holy Sepulchre.
It reads in Latin "Sepulchrum D,N.J.C.
Underneath this inscription reads as follows in English (“JURUSALEM STONE FROM THE HOLY SEPULCHRE”) inside the card visable on the front is the small flake chip.
It shows an outside picture of the Church of The Holy Sepulchre.

I’m wondering what type of Relic category this would fall under?
I do remember the priest saying distinctly it was a flake chip of the Tomb Stone that was rolled in front of Jesus’s Tomb given by Joseph of Arimathea.

Fraternally yours in Christ Jesus
Chris

Good evening my brothers and sisters. It gives me great joy to receive today in the mail, a first class relic of Saint Paola Cerioli, a second class relic of Marie Rose Durocher, and a relic of the stone on which the Archangel Michael stood in Italy. I’m so grateful to God for his blessings, and I would just like to say thank you to everyone on this thread and in Catholic Answers Forum for your love, prayers, and support. I have truly found friends of Faith here. The holy relics have helped me through some very tough times in my life. And I believe this thread has blessed the world and all of our different countries with the splendor of the Tradition of our Glorious Holy Mother Church. JMJ!

I am so glad to hear that you received the relics of St. Michael.
Youre so lucky, SonOfCarmel. Maybe, God wants me to have another letter to them. I want to mail them PERSONALLY for the SURER arrival of the same relics.🙂
May Saint Michael tha Archangel, Saint Paola Cerioli and Marie Rose Durocher intercede for us…
Monday after Easter Sunday, I would mail them personally.
Bless all and have a BLESSED AND MEANINGFUL HOLY WEEK…🙂
 
Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful Holy Treasures with us. The Saints bring us closer to Our Lord.

Keep on Praying for their Beatification and Canonization and Ask for their intercession.

It fills me with great joy to receive the following devotional items on March.12th, 2013, Tuesday I received a booklet, two Novena Prayer cards, and two laminated Prayer cards of St. Leopold Bogdan Mandić
  • The third picture of the Relic badges are actually one of my family members.
God bless,
