So very wonderful! I wish more countries would work together now, but that's a whole different comment. LOL I love the way you made the banners and the photos are awesome.
Great Layout! I was there too in 2014.The church was build with 12 domes-the amount of the countries , donated money for the construction.each donating country are incorporated into the glass of the ceiling, each in a separate, small dome, and also into the interior mosaics. The countries honored in this way are : Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Mexico; in the middle of the church are commemorated: Italy, France, Spain and the United Kingdom, and to the right: Belgium, Canada, Germany, and the United States of America. The mosaics in the apses were donated by Ireland, Hungary, and Poland. The crown around the bedrock itself was a gift of Australia. These multi-national donations give the church its present title as the Church of "All Nations". The windows made of thin blue mineral(stone) to demonstrate the sorrow of the place,imitating semi-night like scene.It is also called the Church or Basilica of the Agony,as it was dedicated to the night when Jesus prayed before his arrest.
Pictures from my trip to Israel in 2011. I added the journaling after I scanned it. The journaling says "This church sits next to the Garden of Gethsemane and is named the Church of All Nations because many different nations came together to build the church in this spot."
The papers are from Moxxie and were a gift from my friend AllAmy. The colors were perfect for these pictures and I am so excited how this came out. Thanks friend!
