Blessing for a Home
Question
Hello! When my cousin moved to a new apartment with her fiancé, I gave them a glass blessing for the home to hang up. My cousin had a recurrence of cancer and died. Her then husband gave it back to me because she did not “live in health”. I don’t want to give it to someone else (superstition). What should I do with it?
Answers
I am so sorry to hear that your cousin passed away. I hope and pray that her husband is able to overcome the tragedy and to live a life of joy and contentment.
The best thing to do is to wrap the blessing up in a bag and then you can dispose of it in the regular way.
