We can learn from the Saints!

Good day bro

It's nice to know that you didn't BUY those holy relics....for a second I thought that you purchased those on e-bay or the likes of it and got scammed,,,,as far as I know there are only two ways of acquiring holy relics and that is : the RIGHT way and the WRONG way in regards to the acquisition, purpose and intention of having one

I read an article about holy relics and it might be useful to us...Bro libraun I'm sure you already know about this things, I'm just sharing this for the sake of others who are not yet fully aware of this (so that they will not misunderstand the DO's and DON'Ts of acquiring holy relics)

This read is a MUST

Frequently Asked Questions: Types of Holy Relics.


This is a long one but more detailed
CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Relics

It's been stated in the Code of Canon Law that HOLY Relics are not for sale

I am just an ordinary convert, who turns back to God recently.

yup, i don't buy relics. for one, it's simony! and second, i don't have the money to buy relics on ebay. i'm not rich! hehehe i'm still waiting for some of my requested relics to come from Rome.. Dili man sad ni collection akoa bro, I only request relics from those saints that I venerate. I know of a place here in the city where you can venerate relics of saints bro. I think almost all relics siguro of saints naa na didto.

Be blessed, be blessed sis

Keep the Holy Fire burning and learn much from it.......a day or a period in your life will come when our loving God will seem to extinguish that Fire off (as He always do to every believer) as a test of faith and perseverance.....Those religious books that you have, particularly the "Dark Night of the Soul" will definitely come in handy .

This is the kind of spiritual test that I feared the most,,,and the most often that I failed at. And it's always our Blessed Mother Mary who pulls me up on my feet back again.."Ave Maria" indeed.

I have actually requested na a relic of her from the Carmelite postulator general, but as of now I havent received any feedback yet. Sige lang sis, kung naay maabot kay tagaan gyud tika.

Now this is interesting...where might that be bro?

Like you I also venerate holy relics of saints but I just don't keep any......I just don't feel worthy enough to have one..he he It might as well be better off in the care of more devoted Catholics.

Its in talamban bro, a friend priest owns the relics. every thursday there's a mass there. If you're familiar with north gen, atbang ana is the OAD professed House, naa diha ang chapel of relics.

Curious lang ko bro, are you a seminarian? or a priest? hehe

So now it's me that's causing an intrigue ,,, just as I was with petite fleur a couple of posts ago

Am I a seminarian or a priest? good heavens NO

I am just a lowly family man who is trying to make an honest living in this world and at the same time struggling to be upright in this spiritual journey that God has set upon me..But I'm happily married and blessed with a cute and healthy little boy..

Oh so the place that you mentioned is in Tabor Hill.,,,good priests residing there

God bless bro.
