2003 Documented reliquary theca with relic of the Blessed Guido Maria Conforti, founder of the Xaverian Missionaries

Round white-metal glass-fronted reliquary theca housing the first-class ex corpore (of the flesh) pre-canonization relic of Saint Guido Maria Conforti. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as B. Guido M. Conforti // Ex Corpore (of the flesh of the Blessed Guido M. Conforti).  On the back, under a protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Xaverian Missionaries. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued and sealed in 2003 by the Postulator General of the Order responsible for the Causes of Canonization. 

Saint Guido Maria Conforti (†1931) was a Roman Catholic Italian archbishop who founded the Xaverian Missionaries (S.X.) in 1895. He was known to make frequent visits to his parishes and worked to support religious education and religious involvement among the youth. Pope John Paul II beatified him in 1996, and he was canonized in 2011 by Pope Benedict XVI.
