• Two life-sized replicas of the Shroud of Turin
• Is the ancient burial cloth of Jesus providing in its fabric the story of His death and Resurrection?
• What do modern “blood and DNA”  studies reveal? Is there a connection to the Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano, Italy?
• Are there images of flowers and pollens on the cloth that trace its history?
• What do modern forensic pathologists have to say about the wounds and the weapons that created them? Do the wounds correspond to the suffering Jesus experienced in the Gospels?
