1991 Documented reliquary theca with relics of St. Benedict the Moor (of San Philadelphio), patron of African Americans

Round glass-fronted yellow-metal reliquary theca housing the first-class ex pelle  (of the skin) relic of St. Benedict the Moor. The relic is affixed to a red silk ground and identified in Latin on a typeset cedula label as S. Bened. a Fhil. (Saint Benedict of Philadelphio).  On the back, under the protective cap, the theca is secured with a seal of red Spanish wax bearing an imprint of a coat of arms of the Order of Friars Minor. The relic is accompanied by the original matching authentics document issued in 1991  by the Postulator General of the Order.

St. Benedict the Moor O.F.M. (†1589) was a Sicilian Franciscan friar who is venerated as a saint in the Catholic church. Born of enslaved Africans in San Fratello, he was freed at birth and became known for his charity. As a young man, he joined a Franciscan-affiliated hermit group, of which he became the leader. In 1564 he was sent to the Franciscan friary in Palermo, where he continued good works. Benedict was beatified by Pope Benedict XIV in 1743 and canonized in 1807 by Pope Pius VII. Benedict is remembered for his patience and understanding when confronted with racial prejudice and taunts. He was declared a patron saint of African Americans. In the United States, at least seven historically Black Catholic parishes bear his name.
