Pilgrimage to the Chiesa di San Gregorio Armeno in Naples

Much appreciated souvenirs from the Chiesa di San Gregorio Armeno:
Santa Patrizia prayer card and pamphlet describing the life of the saint
My dear consorella Rosanna Minervini recently returned to her ancestral homeland of southern Italy to connect with family and explore her rich culture. While in Naples, she visited the Baroque Chiesa di San Gregorio Armeno (Church of St. Gregory of Armenia), the repository of Santa Patrizia’s relics. Knowing my strong devotion to the Saint, Rosanna was kind enough to bring me back a couple of souvenirs and share a few photos she took inside the beautiful church.
