Jesus relics at church [PHOTO/VIDEO] in Chicago, Jesus relics at church in Chicago are believed to be from the manger that held baby Jesus.
The relics include fragments said to be from the manger at Jesus birth, his mother?s veil, and a thread from St. Joseph?s cloak. They will be available for the public to see on Sunday Dec. 30, which is when the Roman Catholic Church celebrates their 155th anniversary, according to a recent report.
The relics, which were released by the Vatican in 1972, were given to the Holy Family Church from the Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii.On Friday, Rev. Jeremiah J. Boland, the church administrator, gave the following statement regarding the matter:
"The Vatican has its own process to determine the authenticity of things. I'm more concerned with it as an object of faith. One could argue how real the relics of Mary or Joseph are, but there were all sorts of objects over the centuries that have been venerated and are based on faith rather than on scientific explanation,"
Boland claims the Jesus relics have authenticity due to the fact they were brought from the Vatican back in the 5th century.
The fragments will be placed on display in a crystal reliquary, which is the normal vessel used to preserve relics of saints.
