Oral Roberts University Praying Hands

Oral Roberts University Praying Hands
The sculpture was cast in 1980 in Juarez Mexico and shipped to Tulsa.
The praying hands are the tallest in the world and stand 60 feet tall and over 30 tons of pure bronze. It was one of the largest pure bronze statues in the world when built. One hand is from a casting of Oral’s hand and the other is from a casting of his son Richard’s hand. The hands were originally placed outside of the City of Faith Medical and Research Center. In 1989 the sculpture was moved to the entrance of the Oral Roberts University campus where it remains today.

    Thanks for the video. My love for Oral Roberts and his ministry will always have a special place in my heart and life was a partner until his death. Went to all the partners meetings a week of heaven every year i attended. Richard and Lindsey. would be there and many of Gods annointed speakers preachers teachers i was always going home so full of Gods word. ORAL Roberts was one of Gods Great Generals. THE PICTURE OF HANDS IT IS A WOUNDERFUL SITE ON THE CAMPUS. LOVE ORU AND ALL IT STANDS FOR. GOD BLESS ORU AND THE STUDENTS ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️. Also love the prayer tower

    No, it was donated by a woman who had a healing miracle. She wanted to pay for the statue out of gratitude to Jesus. I heard the story 20 years ago when I went to Rhema Bible School on line. So no pastor fleecing his sheep this time.

    You know we will always have the poor. Can you feed all of them? So how much of your money have you given to the hungry? You do not know how much has been given. Through the ministry how many medical students the university from ORU. Went to poor country's free dental care. You have no idea how .much Oral Roberts has given to the poor for food and medical. Find out more before you make comments question him and his ministry. That may cost you a lot. Thr word says touch not my anointed. He was anointed. Be careful before you speak
