Sat 07 Jul 2010Relic to spend two weeks in Ireland on first visit
THE MOST precious relic of the Order of St Camillus, the heart of its founder, arrived in Dublin yesterday at the beginning of a visit to Ireland which will last more than two weeks. It has been organised to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the order’s arrival in Ireland.
This is just the third time the relic has left Rome since the saint died on July 14th (his feast day) 1614 and is its first visit to Ireland.
