The builder of the Lay Formation Center, Archbishop Oscar V. Cruz, is also an artist. Some of his works in the LFC building are the wooden furnitures, the crucifixes, some fixtures and now... some of the most beautiful wood-art ever seen in this part of the world are on permanent display at the LFC Lobby.
