34 Trillion Watts | FORWARD BOLDLY

“There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every person.” ~Blaise Pascal

The Shroud of Turin continues to baffle scientists and experts, namely, how the image of this crucified Man became imprinted onto the cloth. Tests prove it was not painted by any human hand. In fact, there is no technology, past or present that could create this image.

According to experts, the only way such an image could be imprinted onto the Shroud would be through a single burst of light 34 trillion watts strong.

34 trillion watts of light!

It was in that moment of blinding light, brighter than a thousand suns, that Our Lord — a scourged, tortured, crucified corpse in the tomb — came back to life, resurrected from the dead.

That resurrection not only signified God's infinite power, but also His infinite and incomprehensible love — a love for which each man was created, and which forms the very purpose of our existence.

About Stella Maris Media

Illustration of Our Lady, Star of the Sea (Stella Maris)

Our vision

The name Stella Maris has its roots in a 5th-century translation by St. Jerome of the Hebrew name for Mary, Miryam. Originally written as Stilla Maris, it meant "Drop of the Sea." Through what likely stemmed from a transcription error, this evolved into Stella Maris, which means "Star of the Sea."

This title has been cherished in Catholic tradition, especially among seafarers before modern navigation, as they relied on the stars to guide them. Notably, the North Star, Polaris, was also known as Stella Maris.

Beyond just seafarers, Stella Maris serves as a beacon for all of life’s travelers, illuminating the darkness and offering hope as it cuts through the fog, guiding us toward the bright shores of eternity.

"Bringing hope to a world in need."
