New Reliquaries

Not every parish can boast the addition of FOUR new reliquaries with First Class Relics! Our parish can!  We now have the addition of the relics of Saint Pius X, Saint Therese of Lisieux, Saint Leonard of Port Maurice and Saint Walfrid.

A quote from St. Leonard:
 After [St. Vincent Ferrar's] death, he appeared to his bishop and said to him, "Know, Monsignor, that at the very hour I passed away, thirty-three thousand people also died. Out of this number, [St.] Bernard and myself went up to heaven without delay, three went to purgatory, and all the others fell into Hell.


Hmm... it might be noted that it is always a good idea to get our act togther!

If you'd like to read the rest of the sermon by St. Leonard:
"The Little Number of Those who Are Saved" here is the link:
