Prayer for understanding of where Jesus was crucified and buried

Heavenly Father,
We come before You with open hearts, seeking understanding and wisdom. Lord, we recognize the tumultuous events surrounding Jerusalem, from the siege in 70 AD when the city lay in ruins, to its transformation into Aelia Capitolina, where access was denied to many.

We are reminded of the trials faced by Your people and the perseverance of their faith through the ages. As we ponder the questions surrounding the burial of Jesus and the role of Joseph of Arimathea, we seek clarity amid confusion.

May Your Holy Spirit guide our understanding and help us uncover the truths embedded in our history. Lord, grant us patience as we explore these mysteries. Help us to approach these discussions with humility and respect, cherishing the faith that binds us together as Christians. May we always strive for unity and deeper knowledge, relying on You for guidance.

In Your holy name, we pray.
Amen.

The Lord’s Prayer (Our Father)

Three long years of meticulous effort, dedication, and artistry have culminated in a remarkable achievement that is sure to captivate the hearts and minds of many. This extraordinary project has resulted in the creation of the most authentic recreation of the person from the Shroud of Turin, a figure who has been an enduring symbol of faith and spirituality for over two millennia.

After 2000 years, this recreation offers a rare glimpse into a past that continues to inspire profound reverence and contemplation.

The “Our Father,” also known as the Lord’s Prayer, holds immense importance in the lives of believers, encapsulating the essence of Christian teachings in a few beautifully crafted lines.

As the man from the Shroud offers this profound prayer, viewers are encouraged to meditate on its meaning and the timeless values it represents.


Our Father, Who art in heaven, 
Hallowed be Thy Name. 


Thy Kingdom come. 

Thy Will be done, 
on earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. 

And forgive us our trespasses, 
as we forgive those who trespass against us. 


And lead us not into temptation, 
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
