Relic Hunter

While visiting London England a few years ago, I accidentally ran across the Holy Thorn from the Crown of Thorns in a beautiful reliquary case. Ever since then I have been going to places near and far to see more relics. I will list places I have been to, the relics I have seen. and some that I hope to see Visiting relics strengthens my faith. Did you know that there are relics of saints in every Catholic altar in the world? Maybe there are relics near where you live.
