Holy Dirt


We received a special gift from New Mexico courtesy of my parents, holy dirt from Chimayo.

During Holy Week Catholics in the Southwest make pilgrimages to the church (El Santuario de Chimayo) and take scoops of dirt home with them, believing it to posses miraculous powers. It is such a popular item that you can order it online from the local nonprofit gift shop (for free?).
We are not quite sure what to do with it exactly. Any suggestions are welcomed and I will pray for inspiration.
