The people of St. John Cantius Parish understand that sacred art plays a very important role in the work of "Restoring the Sacred." This restoration includes a preservation of the artistic patrimony of the Church, replete with exemplary vestments, sacred vessels, and art works. But this mission is not only concerned about preserving artistic works of the past. As a result, St. John Cantius Parish and its resident religious community, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius, strive to continue the cultivation of new sacred art for the greater glory of God. Below are a few examples of the sacred art from St. John Cantius Church.
