Holy Shroud Guild Past, Present and Future
Founded in 1951 by the late Father Edward Wuenschel, Father Adam Otterbein, Father Peter Rinaldi and Father Francis Filas, this organization and its founders served as STURP's primary liaison to the Shroud's custodians prior to and during the 1978 scientific examination of the Shroud. Dedicated to promoting the devotion and scientific research of the cloth, over the decades the Guild made available a large selection of Shroud books, photographs and other materials. Until its work came to an end in recent years, it was the oldest organization dedicated to the Shroud of Turin in the United States. Now, Georgio Bracaglia has taken on the task of archiving and preserving the Guild's materials and posting many of their excellent resources online.
