A long-time friend of this ministry requested the special presence of Saints and Relics for a private prayer gathering she hosted this evening in her Kailua Home.
Several of her invited guests were actually not familiar with our Saints and, more so, the Church's teaching on relics... and she wanted to expose them to it. This author was happy to oblige.
Relics brought by this ministry to the
meeting (L to R): St. Faustina Kowalska,
True Cross, Our Lady's veil, and St. Padre
Pio (the relic of Luisa Piccarreta belongs
to the host)
One of the attendees had recently lost her husband and was understandably going through a difficult period of mourning. I directed our host to place the reliquary with the True Cross in her hands to hold during the Rosary, and the poor woman began weeping silently as we prayed. By the time our prayers ended, her face bore a visible look of relief.
At the end of the night, all the attendees left the meeting uplifted and grateful to God and our host for the meaningful prayers, the presence of the relics, the lively faith-sharing... and for the delicious spread of homemade Korean Food that she prepared for us!
