Holy Umbilical Cord
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Holy Umbilical Cord is a first order Catholic relic, of Christ. Christian teaching generally states that Christ was assumed into heaven corporeally. Therefore the only parts of his body available for veneration are parts he had lost prior—hair, blood, fingernails, milk teeth, his prepuce and the umbilicus remaining from his birth.
