DENVER, May 16, 2016 /Christian Newswire/ -- Eight rare Relics of the Passion, with a unique musical and meditative program focused on Passion of Christ, will be presented at 10 Catholic churches across greater Denver & Colorado Springs area. 

The event, designed to connect participants to roots of their faith, is sponsored by churches where relics will be presented in collaboration with the Apostolate for Holy Relics (AHR), an organization founded 10 years ago in Los Angeles.

It's very rare to see a group of related holy relics all in one place as is presented in this program. Collections such as this are generally seen only in Rome or Holy Land & is something that most people only get to see once in a lifetime.

The documents for these relics have been reviewed & authenticated prior to commencement of first tour in 2007. Since then, they've been venerated in more than 12 archdioceses & 9 dioceses throughout world. 

Because of the Holy Father's declaration of the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, AHR is pleased to be presenting this extraordinary collection at area churches as part of a nationwide tour promoting God's Mercy.

The Relics of the Passion collection includes:

• A piece of True Cross, which was discovered by St. Helena
   
• A piece of Holy Table from room where Last Supper took place
   
• A piece of Column of Flagellation
   
• A piece of The Crown of Thorns
   
• A replica of Holy Nail, fashioned using filings from true nails, making it a relic of a lesser class.
   
• A relic from head of St. Longinus, centurion who pierced side of Christ
   
• A picture of (effigy of) Veil of Veronica touched to original with a Vatican seal attesting toe fact.
   
• A piece of exterior wrapping for Shroud of Turin

Schedule of events:

Presentations in Colorado begin in Denver on Sunday, May 22, continuing through Tuesday, May 31. The complete schedule of events for Catholic churches in Colorado can be found at
