For the first time, first-class relics of the Blessed Ulma family — a Polish Catholic family murdered by the Nazis for secretly sheltering Jews during the Second World War — are coming to the United States.

Catholics are invited to venerate the relics and explore a related exhibit at the Saint John Paul II National Shrine in Washington, D.C., beginning on Jan. 12, ahead of the national March for Life.

“We are especially excited to be able to offer this new display for all the pilgrims coming to Washington, D.C., for the 2024 National March for Life,” Sofía Maurette, the shrine’s director of intercultural ministry, said of the nation’s largest annual pro-life rally that advocates for the dignity of the human person, born and unborn.
