"Relics of Blessed Carlo Acutis and St. Manuel Garcia are traversing West Virginia throughout November. Parishes all over the diocese are hosting the relics with public veneration, Masses, Taizé services, Eucharistic adoration, and the option to receive the sacrament of penance. The relics arrived in West Virginia Nov. 12 at Sacred Heart of Mary Parish in Weirton and have since gone to five parishes.

"
The relics are in the United States for the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops to reinvigorate devotion in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Blessed Carlo Acutis and St. Manuel Garcia are intercessors for the revival. For more information and for updates, go to: https://dwc.org/year-of-the-eucharist/"
