My object, a Catholic Saint, tells the story of my great-grandfather. The saint was bought in a town in Puerto Rico called Loíza aldea. The saint is called the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The saint is connected to my great-grandfather who believed it protected him and his family, according to my mother. This saint is important to my mother because it belonged to my great-grandfather who she never met because he died before she was born. The house the saint was previously in was destroyed but although the house was destroyed the saint survived. In conclusion, this is how the Catholic saint tells the story of my great grand-grandfather.
