Happy All Saints Day!
Anthony Di Mauro and Emily Bacon joined forces with the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Church, and the Poor Clares to bring the relics of the saints into several local Catholic schools. One of those stops was Holy Family Catholic School in Coeur d’Alene.
On Wednesday, The Relic Project participated in the school’s third annual Eucharistic Procession, allowing students to hold relics of the saints as they walked in prayer and reverence.
On Friday, the celebration continued as students dressed as their favorite saints, and each classroom had the opportunity to learn about relics—their meaning, history, and the grace they bring to the faithful.
On Friday afternoon, The Relic Project also visited St. Mary Catholic School, where Emily Bacon, our Missionary, brought the relics to the kindergarten through third grade classrooms, allowing the youngest students to encounter the saints up close.
Meanwhile, Anthony Di Mauro gave a fifteen-minute presentation to the fifth through eighth graders, sharing the meaning of relics, their role in the life of the Church, and the powerful ways the saints continue to intercede for us today.
Our mission is to bring the saints to the public so that people can encounter their intercession and blessings in a tangible way. We may never know how many graces were poured out that day, but one thing is certain: the hearts of those children were deeply touched, and their faith forever strengthened.
If you’d like to see this mission continue, we humbly ask for your support. The Relic Project operates entirely through the generosity of donors like you, and to be transparent—our last contribution came in 13 days ago.
Every gift, no matter the size, helps us bring the saints to schools, parishes, and communities in need of renewal. Please consider supporting us today, and know that your generosity directly fuels this ministry. Thank you for standing with us in faith.
