Description
SACRED HEART CHAPEL INTERIOR - SAINT BENEDICT'S MONASTERY, ST. JOSEPH, MN 1914-1958
There were four side altars dedicated to the Sacred Heart, the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, and the Pieta. The Way of the Cross was mounted on the south and north walls of the chapel -- (two stations are shown midway between the side altar to the left and the Pieta nave to the right)" These stations from the old chapel, were painted to harmonize in color and transferred to the new chapel in 1914. These stations had been donated by Mr. and Mrs. Majerus of St. Cloud."(In the re-decorating process in 1958, they were replaced by new stations sculpted by Peter Lupori.)
The base of the corner granite pilaster to the left of the Blessed Virgin Mary side altar is the cornerstone. On its south side are engraved:""AD;"""MCMXII;" and a cross, and on its east side:""U.I.O.G.D."("Ut In Omnibus Glorificetur Deus" -- That in all things God may be glorified)" __________ CHRONICLES, pp. 144, 146
