The City of St. Jude Interpretive Center and Garden

The Interpretive Center features a rich, extensive collection of photos that share the experience of the Selma to Montgomery march along with St. Jude's history. The Interpretive Garden is the resting place of Father Harold Purcell, founder of The City of St. Jude, and the new found home of the Homeless Jesus sculpture, which embodies our mission as found in Matthew 25:35-40---feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and care for the ill.
