St. Maximilian Kolbe’s relic has arrived safe and sound. It’s incredible to think such a rare relic is now in my possession. Thank you for the beautiful certificate as well. His relic will be treasured among the rest of the saints I’m blessed to be a custodian of. Hope to deal with you again soon!

Just a note to tell you that I received my package today and I am delighted with the purchase. I can hardly wait to present this relic to Fr. on the anniversary of his ordination. Thank you for making the purchase so easy and your prompt response in getting it here.

I received my shipment of relics today, and wanted to thank you. They are BEAUTIFUL. And the certificates are beautiful too. Thank you for carefully packaging everything with such care (relics in a wooden treasure box and certificates in clear plastic). These relics are indeed a treasure and will be honored tonight when I pray vespers. I will be definitely be looking to buy more relics from the Russian Store in the future.

Russian icon - the Holy Mandylion (Image of Christ Not Made by Human Hands)

The Holy Mandylion icon represents the first not made by human hands image of the Savior miraculously created by Christ himself. According to the Christian tradition, King Abgar of Edessa wrote to Jesus, asking him to come to cure him of an illness. Instead, one of the seventy disciples, Thaddeus, is said to have come to Edessa, bearing the words and an image of Jesus, by the virtues of which the king was miraculously healed. To create his likeness, Jesus used a face cloth that miraculously bore the image of His face. This image of Christ preserved on the face cloth was kept and venerated in Edessa and became known as “The Holy Image of Edessa”, the “Holy Mandylion” (from Greek “face cloth”), or “The Image Not Made With Human Hands”. This iconographic type is widely used by both the Eastern and the Western Christian Churches.
