Talk on The Shroud of Turin

Talk on the Shroud of Turin - Tuesday 3 October, 7pm St Osmund’s Parish Rooms - The Tomb was not empty. The mysterious cloth known as the Shroud of Turin, held by many to be the shroud in which Christ‘s body was wrapped and buried, is the most scientifically studied artefact from antiquity in the world. Is it true that the latest research points most compellingly towards its being authentic? Fr Robert Stewart, parish priest of Aldershot in the Diocese of Portsmouth, is coming to St Osmund’s to give a presentation on the scientific study of the Shroud, from the 1980s up to the most recent developments which hit the headlines this year. All are invited.
