""Christus Victorious", a 12-inch high bronze sculpture of the triumphant Christ, was created by A. Malcolm "Mac" Gimse and the design was donated to the St. Olaf Associates to be given exclusively to charter members. The bronze is a Y-shaped figure of Christ at the moment of ultimate triumph on the cross, created as a statement of Christian hope. The image is a reflection of Michelangelo's work on the upper left-hand spandrel of the Sistine Chapel ceiling in the Vatican."
