Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God (†1849), born Dominic Barberi and known as the Apostle of England, was an Italian theologian and Passionist priest who was prominent in spreading Catholicism in England. He contributed to the conversion of John Henry Newman. He was deeply religious from childhood, felt himself distinctly called to join the institute he entered, and believed that God, by a special manifestation, had told him that he was destined to announce the Gospel truth and to bring back stray sheep to the way of salvation. He ws beatified by Pope Paul VI in 1963.

Round brass glass-fronted reliquary theca housing the first-class Ex ossibus (of the bone) relic of the Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground surrounded by gilt silver wire ornamentation and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Dominici M. D. (Blessed Dominic of the Mother of God). On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Congregation of the Passion of Jesus Christ (The Passionists). The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed in March of 1964 (one year after his beatification) by the Postulator General of the Order responsible for the Causes of Canonization.
