Tiny fragments of bone believed to be remains of the three wise men who visited the newborn Jesus will be on display in Tucson for two days next week.
The Catholic relics tour, titled “Come Let Us Adore Him,” will be at the Northwest Side’s St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church Sunday, and at Downtown’s St. Augustine Cathedral on Tuesday.
“This is the closest I’m going to get to God in my physical lifetime,” said Arizona Knights of Columbus spokesman John Garcia. “And since this is a time of Christmas, it puts us closer in touch with the birth of Christ.”
The Arizona Knights of Columbus, a Catholic men’s group, and the Apostolate for Holy Relics, a non-profit organization, are co-sponsors.
