Shroud of Turin Exhibit Schedule - Michigan, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Nebraska, Wisconsin

• Man of the Shroud Exhibit

   

  The Shroud of Turin has long been venerated by the faithful & is believed by many to be the burial cloth of Jesus of Nazareth. The Shroud is one of the most scientifically studied religious icons in history. As science has progressed, so has the speculation on how the image of the crucified man of the Shroud was made.
  
  The exhibit presents the results of a comprehensive scientific, historical & forensic study with numerous photos & illustrations. The exhibit is the work of the Center for the Study of the Passion of Christ & the Holy Shroud & Monsignor Giulio Ricci & other scientists, who spent more than 25 years researching the Holy Shroud.
   
  The centerpiece of the exhibit is a full-length replica of the Shroud developed from a photographic image of the Shroud made by the Eastman Kodak Co. The replica shows the front & back of the shroud.  In addition, the mobile exhibit contains a large crucified corpus showing the wounds of Christ corresponding to the passion narrative in the Gospel accounts & the wounds shown on the Shroud. The exhibit contains 92 panels detailing the history & science of the Shroud. 

  The Conventual Franciscan Friars of Marytown—the National Shrine of St. Maximilian Kolbe make this important mobile exhibit & evangelization tool available on loan.

Relics of Saint Josaphat in Detroit, Michigan

Saint Josaphat Catholic Church in Detroit, Michigan houses relics of Saint Josaphat.

Saint Josaphat Church
691 E Canfield Street
Detroit, Michigan 48201
Phone: 313.831.6659 or 313.831.3352

St. Josaphat (baptized Johannes) Kuncevyc, was born circa 1580 in Volodymr, Lithuania.

He died a martyr’s death in Vitebsk, Russia, on 11/12/1623.

All of the sacred images of the church are illuminated by a myriad of tiny light bulbs. The church was originally built with both gas and electric which can be seen by observing the fixtures throughout the church At the turn of the century there was a great fascination with the electric light bulb which is clearly witnessed in St. Josaphat Church.
