Papal Blessing
Show More >>
The Papal Blessing is a special spiritual service we offer to our customers. Upon request, we will personally take the religious articles you have purchased (such as rosaries, medals, or crucifixes) to St. Peter’s Square or the Paul VI Audience Hall during the Holy Father's public audiences. There, the Holy Father imparts his Apostolic Blessing upon the crowd and the devotional objects they carry. This allows your gift to be spiritually united with the Vatican before it reaches your home.
Requesting the blessing is very simple. During the checkout process, look for the option labeled “BLESSING FROM THE HOLY FATHER REQUEST” and select it. If you forgot to select it during checkout, don't worry! You can email us immediately at [insert support email here] with your order number, and we will add the request manually, provided the order hasn't shipped yet.
The service is absolutely free of charge. At VaticanGift.com, we believe that a blessing is a spiritual gift that cannot be sold. You pay only for the price of the item you purchased; our staff handles the logistics of taking the item to the Vatican as a courtesy to our customers.
Yes, please keep in mind that this service requires extra time. Since we must coordinate with the Pope’s schedule (typically the Wednesday General Audience or the Sunday Angelus), requesting a blessing will usually add 3 to 5 business days to your order processing time. We appreciate your patience as we ensure your item receives this special spiritual attention.
