   Ekurlowa:

   “Vid” I believe stands for “viduata” which means widowed.

   St. Augustine is a Bishop, a Confessor, and a Doctor of the Church.
   So, E.C.D. stands for (I presume) Episcopus, Confessor, Doctor.

   How did you get them, Father?

   The only relic I have is the second-class relic of JPII on the prayer card from the cause for his canonization. Not quite the same thing, but I treasure it.

   Or, in this case, to be completely accurate, viduae

   To be completely accurate, I suppose I should have said : Episcopi, Confessoris, Doctoris.

    St. Monica really had a lot of patience when praying for the coversion of her son. It payed off in the end. He was converted, became a priest, a bishop, a saint and a doctor of the Church.
