World's Largest Praying Hands

The 30-ton pair of hands was originally known as "The Healing Hands" when it was built in 1980. Standing 60 feet tall in front of Oral Roberts University the giant hands include an inscription from Luke 2:52 on its base. Artist Leonard McMurry apparently used a neighbor's extremities as his model. This landmark is definitely worth a detour as is the university grounds which feature a stunning array of futuristic architecture. (Photo by Steph R)
