Sacred Heart of Jesus Statue
In the east transept, the
image of the Sacred Heart reaches out with love
and compassion to the faithful believer.
The statue, towering 12 feet in height and
weighing over 1200 pounds, is carved from an
eight ton single block of white Carrara marble.
The Sacred Heart statue appears to float against the
gold-leafed reeded background of carved wood.
The statue was carved by Italian sculptor
Roberto Padrini.
