There are times when you wish to ask questions which concern the Catholic Church, Scripture, the Blessed Virgin Mary, or similar areas, but lack the opportunity for one reason or another.

Through the courtesy of Fr. Tom Krafinski, C.M., a Vincentian priest, and the Central Association of the Miraculous Medal, offers you an opportunity to ask such questions.

This week's question:
Can you tell me the origins and meaning behind holy water? I realized that I have always used it at home and at Mass; but I do not feel I know or understand the true meaning behind why we use it and what its full intent is for us.
M. W.
