| The transfiguration Chapel |
It's been almost a year now since we last visited this place. As far as I could see, nothing has changed, the church and garden are still the same as last time. The place is still wonderful as it was.
 |
| Spot the difference |
 |
| The Groom and the Bride ^o^ |
 |
| The altar. See the carved trunk? |
The main altar is a carved tree trunk representing the “stem of Jesse,” mentioned in the Book of the Prophet Isaiah: then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse, and a branch from his roots will bear fruit (Is 11:1).
 |
| The beautiful stained glass windows |
The stained glass depicts the Transfiguration of Jesus witnessed by Peter, John, and Luke. With Jesus are Moses and Elijah, two significant instruments of God in the Old Testament(Mat 17:3).
