Packages Shipped From the Crusaders
Dear Crusaders,
We recently mailed out packages to Crusaders containing a cloth which was touched to a reliquary containing the head veil of the B.V.M., to her belt, and to a piece of her hair. It was also simultaneously touched to all the other saints who are also enclosed in this reliquary.
To clear some confusion:
Upon examining the reliquary Father said it was at least a few hundred years old. The relic had come from a monastery in Italy where it fell (perhaps the monastery closed or went full on modernist I don't know) into the hands of a protestant from Holland who saw an opportunity to make a pretty penny off it. Kyrie Eleison. Seeing this I purchased the reliquary hence putting it back into the hands of at least myself as part of the Church. Hopefully we will be able to get it back into a Church. In the meantime we will simply be grateful to have been able to rescue it.
As for Our dear Lady there are no first class relics of her body, meaning her bones because she was assumed into heaven, however the Church does have her hair which I believe was found in the tomb after she was assumed and in her head veil. The Church then made first class relics out of them. It is the only part of Our Lady's person that you will ever see as a first class because there is nothing else.
As to the power of a third class relic I would relate that when the Church brought the glass container encasing the body of Saint Therese of the Child Jesus we were fortunate enough in our town to have her here with us at Saint Peter's Cathedral for 2 days. We all were given a chance to venerate her but a friend of mine had the smart idea (which I did not think to do) of bringing a handkerchief and touching it to the glass she was enclosed in.
This friend of mine from the time they bought their house 20 years prior NEVER had water in their well except when it rained. They never did their laundry at home but only at the laundry mat and they only took baths once a week.
When she got home she took a piece of the handkerchief and threw it down the well. We were at that time still in a bit of a drought and she had no water for some time. The next morning she realized her well was full and remained full for a complete month and during a drought.
Remembering this I wanted to share with all of you this incredible blessing of having these amazing relics.
If you live in the U.S. and did not receive a package let me know. If you live outside the U.S. those packages will be mailed at the end of the month because they are exceptionally expensive to mail.
My apologies for not having put all this info in the packages thereby creating some confusion but after addressing so many packages and handwriting just the list of Saints for each one, I admittedly got lazy. Again sorry about that.
God bless you+

P.s. I am waiting for the pictures of the reliquary to upload. As soon as they do I will post them here.

I was able to get out those I missed in the U.S. yesterday and a few international. I'm sorry but it is almost 15 dollars for each envelope international so I can only do so many a month. That is not a complaint or anything else, it's just the way it is. My apologies for how long it is taking because of it.

If you live in the U.S. and still have not got one please let me know. If you have not received one it is probably because I do not have your address. So please send me your request along with your address.
