A new museum about the Shroud of Turin will open Nov. 18 on the campus of Christ Cathedral of the Diocese of Orange, California.
Across its 10,000 square feet of exhibition space, “The Shroud of Turin: An Immersive Experience” will use the Shroud of Turin as an entryway to bring visitors through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is designed as a 90-minute experience that offers information about the extensive scientific research that has been done on the Shroud.
“If all we do is prove that the Shroud was the shroud of Jesus, without the Resurrection, all we’ve done is prove it’s a shroud of a guy who lived 2,000 years ago,” Pat Powers, president of the museum, said in a press release from the diocese. “But it’s a lot more than that. We’re going to show people that their faith is not in vain. The Shroud shows us that Jesus was, in fact, resurrected. The museum shows us how we can discern that from the Shroud.”
