Don’t know if this was “kosher” but I just kissed the photo of it on my iPhone. At least He knows what I mean . . . .
Thank you for sharing this. What a wonderful feast today is!
My friend had a similar reliquary. still does actually. beautiful.
Wow. Just. Wow.
You are soooo lucky to have this, Father Z!
Happy ‘Holy Cross Day’!
How blessed you are to have that, Father.
Ditto VivaLaMezzo!
Stupid Question: How, exactly, does one suppose or know that it is a real piece of THE cross?
I would think, in general, that relics of any sort would be ripe terrain for the usual fraudsters.
Sincere veneration, even if mistaken, is still vituous I’m sure, so perhaps nothing really turns on the answer. I’ve just always wondered….
You are blessed indeed to have such a precious relic Father.
