Veneration of Relics
During the presentation Dave refers to Saints and to the use of Relics and Sacramentals several times and stresses the importance of holiness as the only true victory over evil. Most Catholics do not get the chance to encounter relics very often and Dave brings several rare relics with him for people to encounter. Attendees are welcome to hold them and venerate them in any appropriate way they feel comfortable. There will also be prayer cards on the table if they would like to "make" 3rd class relics with them.
The relics that Dave brings vary from event to event depending on which ones he has access to at the time but attendees will always have a chance to encounter:
A Relic of the True Cross
A Relic of the Crown of Thorns
A Relic of Mary's Veil and Her Sash
A First Class relic of St. John Vianney
A First Class relic of St. Gemma Galgani
A Second Class relic of St. Mother Theresa of Calcutta (A piece of her Sari)
A Second Class relic of Blessed Bartolo Longo (A piece of clothing)
