A wooden statue of the Holy Bishop dedicated to Saint John Neumann, Bishop of Philadelphia and a devoted advocate of Catholic education. The figure reflects his faith, pastoral commitment, and service to the community.
Made of wood, shaped with a pantograph, and finished by hand, it is available in three finishes: hand-painted, brown with three gradations, or natural wood.
The story of Saint John Neumann
Born in Bohemia in 1811, John Neumann moved to the United States, where he was ordained a priest and joined the Redemptorists. In 1852 he became Bishop of Philadelphia and devoted himself especially to pastoral work and Catholic education. He died on January 5, 1860, and was canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1977.
