Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
My family became Catholic when I was just nine years old. Even before our baptism, I remember seeing an image of the Holy Face of Jesus from the Shroud of Turin. That image stayed with me—mysterious, tender, and powerful. Later, during my formative years at Mount Angel Seminary and St. John’s Seminary, I encountered the Shroud again, and each time it spoke to my heart in a deeper way.
And now, standing here today at our own Christ Cathedral campus, I feel profoundly moved to witness this extraordinary gift. I am touched beyond words—not only by the sacred image itself, but by the grace of Jesus Christ who continually draws us closer to His love, and by the diocesan committee that has made such an experience possible. My heart is filled with gratitude: gratitude to our Lord for revealing His presence through this ancient and mysterious cloth, and gratitude to the Christ Cathedral campus for opening a space where faith and wonder can meet.
As I look around, I am reminded that the Shroud is more than an artifact—it is an invitation. An invitation to reflect, to pray, to encounter Christ in a profoundly personal way. I truly hope each of you will take the opportunity to visit the museum, to stand before the Shroud, and to let yourself be touched just as I have been. I encourage you to purchase a ticket, bring your family, your friends, your parish groups—share this experience of beauty, mystery, and grace.
May this museum be a place where our hearts are stirred, where questions lead to deeper faith, and where all who enter encounter the love of Jesus in a powerful and life-changing way.
Thank you very much, see you year-round, and may God bless you all.
Very Rev. Bao Thai
