Shroud replica exhibit coming to North Carolina

A multimedia exhibit about the Shroud of Turin will be on display at Central United in Denton, North Carolina, from Nov. 8 to 15. The free educational display, titled “Man in the Shroud,” features a life-sized replica of the cloth, a life-sized crucifix, a film, and 62 educational panels.

Peter Mcguire of Denton organized the exhibit, which is based at the National Shrine of Maximilian Kolbe in Marytown, Illinois. Mcguire travels to Illinois to transport the materials to North Carolina and coordinates with volunteers to set up the display. This marks the second time the exhibit has visited the state; Mcguire previously brought the display to two churches in Elkin in 2022.
