<\/a>Looking for a unique Christmas gift? Or perhaps just a meaningful memento for yourself or someone you love? <\/p>\n

Zenit<\/a> reports the following: <\/p>\n

People who want to receive a relic “ex indumentis” — from the clothing — or a holy card of Pope John Paul II, may do so by writing to the Vicariate of Rome.<\/p>\n

The Vicariate of Rome is accepting requests via mail, fax or e-mail for the religious items. The petition should be sent to “Holy Cards and Relics Service,” and should indicate a shipping address.<\/p>\n

The holy cards contain the prayer to obtain graces through the intercession of the Servant of God John Paul II and can be requested in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish and Portuguese.<\/p>\n

Though the vicariate is not charging for the holy card, donations are accepted to cover the printing and mailing expenses.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can find out more by visiting the official website<\/a> devoted to the cause of his beatification and sainthood. (Yes, in the internet age, the Church now has such things.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
