Belief in what is seen... and unseen!
Walking into the Reliquary which is located behing the altar (access through a doorway on the right) was amazing seeing pieces from the Passion of Christ- fragments of the nails, the crown of thorns, pieces of the True Cross, a fragment from the inscription written by Pilate and nailed to the cross above Jesus' head, not to mention the incorrupt finger of St. Thomas who (with the same finger) probed the wounds of Christ after he had been raised from the dead! It really helps your faith to be able to see in in front of you!
