Catholic saint relic exhibitions and veneration

Overview

Public religious exhibits and veneration events involving Catholic saints have been reported across several regions.

In the Philippines, Santo Domingo Church hosted an exhibit featuring relics of Saints Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati to mark the first anniversary of their canonization. The event, themed ‘Make Your Life a Masterpiece, Created for Greatness, Called to Holiness,’ included first-class relics, paintings, and books intended to inspire Catholic youth.

Subsequent reports indicate continued public veneration of relics in other countries. In Luque, Paraguay, approximately 1,300 pilgrims from Paraguay and Argentina gathered at the Santuario Virgen del Rosario to venerate a relic of Carlo Acutis. Meanwhile, in Mérida, Mexico, the Templo Expiatorio de Nuestra Señora de la Consolación exhibited a first-degree relic of Padre Pío, specifically a fragment of a glove containing traces of blood from his stigmata.
