Relics in Your Parish (POLL)

[Tis_Bearself]

There’s been past threads where CAF posters said their church didn’t have a relic even though it was a fixed altar, or that their church took years to get a relic after it was built. Apparently it is hard to get substantially sized relics, and the little tiny ones that used to be used are not permissible any more.

It was my understanding…we were taught as children studying Catechism that every Altar had a relic inside it…is this still the case…with the rather table looking altar where Mass is offered…tks

Our parish has a relic of St. Martin de Porres in the altar and a picture of him in the sanctuary.
