We encouraged your teens to do something special for their Mothers!
However, your family is encouraged to attend this event on Friday (in two days)!
Holy Spirit parish presents a teaching and exposition of Sacred Relics of the Saints: Treasures of the Church on Friday, May 6 at 6:30 pm. Father Carlos Martins, a Vatican-appointed expert on relics will be here with an extraordinary Vatican collection of over 150 relics, some as old as 2,000 years.
Among the treasures will be relics ofSt. Joseph, St. Maria Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower”), St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. There will also be a portion of the Veil of Our Lady and one of the largest remaining pieces of the True Cross in the world.
Those in attendance will be able to examine and venerate each relic. Throughout history, many healings have been worked in the presence of relics; and thousands have occurred through this ministry. Do not miss this opportunity.
You are encouraged to bring your articles of devotion (such as rosaries, holy cards, etc.) and pictures of ill friends/family members, which you will be able to touch to the reliquaries as a means of intercession. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Please spread the word!
There is no cost to attend the exposition. Free will baskets will be available for those who desire to make a donation to support this ministry. Note: No food or drinks will be allowed in the church or Emmaus Hall during the exposition in order to maintain a reverent atmosphere.
