Gérald Lajeunesse, the priest at ainte-Anne-des-Pins Catholic Church in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, says the head was returned to him on Friday.
The statue had recently been fitted with the temporary clay head, topped with a spiky orange crown, crafted by local artist Heather Wise. Father Lajeunesse said a woman returned the head. The woman said the person who took the head was suffering from personal problems, according to Lajeunesse.
The priest said that he would not file a complaint over the theft, and is simply happy that the head has been returned. Lajeunesse says that for now, the statue will remain headless. Before replacing it, the church needs to figure out how to secure it safely to the statue and prevent it from being stolen again.

Okay, I'm not convinced that the original head is that much of an improvement. Maybe my eyes aren't that good any longer?
