Sculptor Mic Carlson created this life size statue of Saint Francis of Assisi for Artprize, the world's largest international art competition. The statue was unveiled September 23, 2009. It is surrounded by 12 monks, followers of Francis. It was an interactive piece where you could hold hands with the monks to complete the circle. Mic placed in the top 25 artists out of 1262. On October 4, the feast of Francis, a blessing of the animals was held in front of the statue with Pastor Ginny Mikita officiating.
