The Church of Blessed Father Eustáquio receives a relic of Blessed Nha Chica.

The Sanctuary of Health and Peace, Church of Blessed Father Eustáquio, in Belo Horizonte, received, last weekend, a visit from a first-degree relic (bone fragment) of Blessed Nhá Chica. The relic's visit to the Sanctuary is part of the special program for the 2024 Feast of Blessed Father Eustáquio.

To mark the date, at 3 pm there was a recitation of the Holy Rosary, praise and a talk on holiness. At 3 pm, Father Edson Pereira, rector of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Conception (of Blessed Nhá Chica), in Baependi-MG, presided over the Holy Mass to welcome the reliquary.

The festivities also included welcoming pilgrims from the city of Poá/SP, who always come to the Sanctuary to receive a blessing to begin the celebrations in their city. After the mass, there were food stalls at the Community Center.
