A Jesus statue build with Lego

In Sweden is a church in Västerås taping into the consumer engagement wave. They are going to build a Jesus in Lego parts. It will need at least 20.000 white Lego parts to build it. Their priest Per Wilder (per.wilder@svenskakyrkan.se) are looking for people how have white Lego parts and wants to help build the Jesus statue, it you like to join, build ore send Lego to them – here is contact information to the Church.

Did search for “church + Lego” on Google.com and got 2.070.000 hits. It seems that Lego and religion are a strong combination.

This church is build by Amy Hughes, here first project was a large house, about 4 feet by 2 feet in size. Just like me there is a lot of question ask what’s motivate and how it’s done so she has a good FAQ on the site. What would you build?
