The Roman-style corpus and cross was designed by Graphic Designer Maria Hubbard under Liturgical Designer Rolf Rohn and the Pastor’s direction. The corpus was the careful work
of our Italian wood carvers; the cross itself was made by a talented local man.
The wood-carved body of Christ, measuring 7’6” tall, 6’ wide and 8”deep, was
crafted in perfect proportion to the cross and in exquisite detail after two
small-scale models were done to ensure perfection. Rolf donated resources to
the development of the Corpus, in addition to providing a life-size print of
the design for fundraising purposes that was installed in place to help
parishioners envision and support the completed crucifix.
