                         The Shroud of Turin

It's the most intensely studied artifact in human history. Never before has the church allowed an object of faith to be inspected with the natural tools of science. Please visit their wonderful website:
The Turin Shroud Center of Colorado

In a letter to Dr. Jackson, Pope Paul II sent cordial good wishes for continued Shroud research and said he hopes the work will foster closer relations between Christians of East and West.  


The Shroud as it appears as a photographic negative, from the first photograph ever taken of it.

This inexplicable image of a man is much more than a relic.

Dr John and Rebecca Jackson John Jackson, Ph.D. led the scientific team "STURP" that examined The Shroud in 1978 in Turin, Italy. Dr. John Jackson and his wife, Rebecca Jackson, MBA, a noted ethnologist invite you to join them on this historic Turin Shroud Center trip. John & Rebecca established the first Shroud Center in Moscow, Russia in 1997. Dr. John Jackson and Rebecca Jackson, MBA  research and travels make this a once in a life time experience.
