Caretaker of Saints: The Story of Father Tony's Relics.

Fleeing across the Mediterranean from war-torn Europein the face of fascism, through dark forests with only the light from oil lamps to guide them, a Croatian family seeks refuge in Egypt before finding their way to safety in Camden, New Jersey to build their lives in freedom and safety...not the story you might expect to find behind the unique collection of first-class relics here at St. Joe's in Camden. With the election of Pope Leo XIV and the global focus on the Papacy over the past several weeks we thought to focus on an item of religious devotion so close to Catholicism while alsotelling the fascinating history of how they came to be here from someone who knows it so well. Tony Barolin is the nephew of Father Anthony Cecich, a Croatian priest who amassed the collection of relics enshrined in our beautifulchurch. This is his story. Also, our Polish Saint of the Month segment features St. Albert Chimielowski.Information on the relics: https://stjosephscamdennj.com/  (PowerPoint show under “relics Install”Music Sources:Chopin - Grande Valse Brillante, Opus 18 byGregorQuendel -- https://freesound.org/s/713354/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0221029_2225_FR_MaleChoir.wav by kevp888 --https://freesound.org/s/657761/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Hopeful Cinematic Emotional Orchestra Background Musicby EvanBoyerman -- https://freesound.org/s/753968/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Vanhan ajan sota, taistelu, miekkailu / Ancient, oldtime battle, combat, horses snorting and galloping, men shouting and barking,fencing, swords clanging, mix by YleArkisto -- https://freesound.org/s/258207/-- License: Attribution 4.0Piano for Meditation by SergeQuadrado --https://freesound.org/s/740607/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0220118_1781-2_FR_ChurchOrgan.wav by kevp888 --https://freesound.org/s/615216/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Accordion-music-reverb.wav by eyenorth --https://freesound.org/s/482212/ -- License: Attribution 4.0
