To the Benedictine Sisters,
As the sole owner of a large collection of historic art depicting the Holy Shroud, I am in search of a Catholic facility for the collection. It was suggested to me that you may have space for an exhibit of the collection. There are oil paintings,historic engravings, embroideries, photographs, even relics of the Shroud. It can be donated or loaned to your monastery; or another facility you could recommend.
I was going to call you, but decided to write so that you could discuss it within your community.
With thanks for your consideration,
Richard Orareo
