It looks beautiful. Do you believe in God?

I try to be a better man.
Hahahahaha @To_paul what a weird answer “I try to be a better man”. I need a direct answer from you Paul.
Mary Magdalene was a fine woman, who spend all her resources on Jesus Christ. She is a perfect example to follow by many believers.
@Austinelewex so you start to think I’m bad man?
Far from that my dear Friend @To_paul . All I need is a clearer answer. Hahahaha
@To_paul I use Google Translate.
Wonderful picture. The color looks like particles, but is it painted or mosaic?
Is this a church wall? I want to see Street View, can you put a map link?
@Izumi not visible on Street View
has location and pictures, exterior wall mosaic,
the church is built on the site of a forced labor camp during communism, where thousands of priests and monks were imprisoned
thank you very much
Thank you for the photos and links. Even if there is no Street View, I look at this place in a lot of photos. What a cute monastery! The texture of the winding passage around the monastery is something I have never seen.
And I learned the hidden history. I am thankful to you.
@Izumi I am very honored that you were interested in the story behind the mosaic.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart
@Izumi Do you know Mary Magdalene?
@To_paul I love the architectural design of this church. Is this the architectural style of Romania during the communist regime. And please Paul what type of style is it.
During communism there was a forced labor camp
, Nazarcea / Galeșu (Poarta Albă commune)
They had to dig the Black Sea Danube canal with a shovel
Many died of hunger, torture, cold.
and there are countless sources you can study
on the ground where the monastery was built, several thousand priests were imprisoned
Some names are written on that marble plate.
The consecration of the place took place on June 1, 2012.
The church is in the Byzantine style
Thank you very much
Thank you so much for the link @To_paul . Sure I would read about it. So that I can compare communist regime with Military regime. I was very small during military regime in my country. So I have no idea of what transpired during those times.
@Austinelewex Nice to meet you.
I don’t know much about Mary Magdalene, but I know that she was a woman beside Jesus.
If you know why her figure is drawn in that monastery, please let me know.
@Izumi I don’t know why her image is drawn. Maybe @To_paul Would know better. But one thing I am sure about is that she is a good example for Christians to follow. It is super nice you know about Jesus Christ. I hope you believe the faith. My friend @Izumi
It is a religious icon
Mary Magdalene, apostle of the apostles
All the saints have halo around their heads
beautiful art @To_paul
I appreciate the arts, thank you very much
