- But the cross still towers above.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: BUT THE CROSS STILL TOWERS ABOVE #1728 NAGASAKI, Japan -- Although the Roman Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart here is but a barren space surrounded by four walls, the cross atop its steeple still towers over the ruins of the adjacent city, a symbol of the Material losses suffered and the hope of everlasting life. Ten thousand Catholics perished in the neighborhood of this church when the atom bomb fell. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RTB-TO-MES-2-B-6-C)
