Altar of Relics Postcard

Have you had the opportunity to visit the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton?  Within the magnificent Basilica, one can find the Altar of Relics, a quiet and awe-inspiring place where the remains of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton are entombed.  Here, a beautiful statue, which was sculpted in Italy, depicts Mother Seton dressed in what she and the Sisters of Charity wore beginning in 1809. Beneath the altar and enclosed in marble, Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton’s remains rest in a small copper casket.  Visitors from all over the world visit here to pray, reflect, and share their intentions with Mother Seton, a powerful prayer intercessor.  Bring this inspiring remembrance of the Shrine home with you with this lovely, full color postcard featuring the Altar of Relics.
