The relic came in. I wanted to cry. My heart was so overwhelmed with joy. On my 25th anniversary the Discalsed Monastery celebrated mass with me in their cloister. The Mother Prioress with the sisters came be a hard bound copy of his writings and his life. I feel it was the hand of Blessed Francisco was moving them. And with this holy relic he is moving me. I will do a more intensive study of him. I will place his relic in the large reliquary I have with John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, and Therese of Liseaux. He will be at home.

Round yellow-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing first-class ex ossibus (of the bone) relics of two Martyr Popes: Saint Pope Alexander I and Saint Pope Sixtus I. The relics are affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on typeset cedulae labels as S. Alex I. // S. Xysti I P.M (Saint Alexander I // Saint Sixtus I, Pope & Martyr ). 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 Monsignor Ugo Poletti (†1997), the Vicar General of Rome (1973–1997). The reliquary is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued by the Vicar General of Rome in 1993.

Saint Pope Alexander I (†c. 115) was the bishop of Rome from about 108/109 to 116/119 who suffered martyrdom under the Roman emperor Trajan. He played an important part in the early development of the Church of Rome's emerging liturgical and administrative traditions. In the reign of the emperor Hadrian, Alexander I converted the Roman governor Hermes by miraculous means, together with his entire household of 1,500 people. He is said to have seen a vision of the infant Jesus. His remains are said to have been transferred to Freising in Bavaria, Germany in AD 834. He is venerated by the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church and his Feast Days is celebrated respectively in 16 March (Greek Christianity) and 3 May (Tridentine calendar).

Saint Pope Sixtus I, also spelled Xystus (†c. 126) was the bishop of Rome from c. 117 or 119 to his death. He succeeded Alexander I and was in turn succeeded by Telesphorus. Sixtus I instituted several Catholic liturgical and administrative traditions. His Feast Day is celebrated on 6 April.
