The Saints at the Chapel: Thrilling Tales of History’s Holiest Heroes
Thrill to twenty strange and wonderful tales from the lives and legends of the saints. In this collection you’ll meet St. Theodore Stratelates, the crucified Roman general who had to be killed a second time, and St. Vitus, whose miraculous intercession brought and end to an outbreak of dancing mania. Read all about the secret mission to smuggle the remains of St. Mark the Evangelist out of Egypt … the ghostly appearance of St. Vincent of Saragossa five days after his death … and the miraculous bloom of violets credited to St. Fina.
Christopher Reibold here turns his attention to the great saints whose relics are on display at St. Anthony’s Chapel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The chapel is home to the largest collection of saints’ relics outside Rome.
