This is the perfect day to reprint this post from one of my old blogs.
I came across this story a few years ago. I'm not sure if it is true.
An elderly woman approached her priest and asked, "Father, is it true that anything touched by a Saint is considered a relic?" "Yes," said the priest, "anything definitely known to have been touched by a Saint would be considered a Third Class relic." And the old lady said, "Well! I was once spanked by Mother Cabrini!"
That's one relic I would not care to kiss!
