Ok, Hope this is the right forum.
As some of you know, My best friend gave birth on Sunday, and due to many complications, the baby passed within a few hours. He was baptized, and my husband and I were named Godparents. So he is a saint obviously, St. Easton. I know that if you touch something to a saint it becomes a relic right?
My question is this, I have a gold crucifix necklace I bought for him, so his mother asked me just to touch it to him and give it to her. I also have some rosaries as well. My question is this: Neither the crucifix nor the rosaries are blessed, do they still count as a relic then? The viewing is tonight, and I cant get ahold of any of our priests,so Im not sure if I should just do it anyways? Thank you!!
