“Some believe he's Jesus of Nazareth.

Others are skeptical.

Some don't know what to think. 

 
What can Scripture and science tell us about the Shroud of Turin? 
Step inside to gather the evidence. Stand back in time at the  
tomb of Jesus. Watch the past and present intertwine. The man 
of the Shroud invites a response to the question Jesus poses 
to his followers: Who do you say that I am?”

Speaker 講員

Fr. Andrew Dalton, LC is in Asia participating in the APAVM Jubilee Year Lecture Series, giving lectures on the Shroud. We are blessed to have him in Hong Kong from 18-23 July 2025.

Fr. Andrew Dalton is a Catholic priest of the Legionaries of Christ and professor of the theology at the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum in Rome, where he teaches the Synoptic Gospels and Biblical Greek and Hebrew. 

For the Postgraduate Certificate in Shroud Studies, he lectures on the Biblical Theology of the Passion of Christ. Fr. Dalton has become well-kwown as an international speaker on the Shroud. His approach bridges the gap between scientific observation and theological interpretation.
