Catholic Statues

Catholic statues serve the purpose of honouring and commemorating these people which is being depicted — Saints, Angels and Jesus. Some people say Catholics worship idols. The Jehovah Witness said it is wrong to have images or statues placed at home (altar).

Once, I was confused. People around me do not believe us, the Catholics. Even Catholics themselves do not believe in their own faith… But who knows… Jesus appeared and Jesus said to me and sent me messages!

It was all my experiences with Jesus Christ, my Lord since my childhood days. Having statues in the church and at home (altar) is definitely not worshipping idols. I will tell you why later or you can visit this link first: Do Catholics Worship Statues?

These Statues are found inside the Cathedral of The Good Shepherd:

At the sides of the church are these two statues, St Joseph and Virgin Mary holding Jesus.

At the centre of the church where you enter the church, you can see two statues, one on the left and the other on the right. They are as shown below, the statue of St Anthony and the statue of St Francis Xavier.

    [...] Many people do not believe in Mary, the mother of God. Many people regard Catholic as false religion, worshiping idols.
