I'd like to give you a tour of a place I've gone many times over the years. This place is not only beautiful, but peaceful.
One of my favorite views, if you get the chance, is crossing the Higgins Street Bridge heading North. It's quite breathtaking with the mountain as the backdrop.
Here's a little closer view...
Welcome to St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church
The history is awesome inside the walls.
Come on in and let me show you around:-)
This is the pipe organ and loft...
And the gorgeous painted ceiling...
The statues and small alcoves.
I realize that some people think too many churches are elaborate, but I like to think of places like this as a visual of the talents the Lord has given all of us to use for His glory. This is the altar area.
I truly feel at peace and joyful when I visit St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. I hope you will too.
Thank you for visiting, please feel free to come again in the future. Sit in a pew, say a prayer, marvel at the talents the Lord blessed the craftsmen with who built this wonderful place, and enjoy worship if you wish.

It was very touching finding out your so spiritual blog. I would like you yuo to visit my PALAVROSSAVRVS REX.
Thank you for visiting Joshua!
I did go visit Joshua's blog as he asked. It's in Portugese, but he has quite a visual site. He posts some interesting photos of eye surgery, rockets, and political figures. I translated as much as I could (not being a Portugese speaker, I used babelfish.altavista online) and his blog seems to be a strong voice his views on justice and politics. (I'm so sorry if I got that wrong, Joshua.)
I enjoyed finding his blog because I had no idea how international this type of blogging had become. I love an adventure in discovery.
I cannot say I agree or disagree with his blog because I don't understand enough of his native language. Babelfish does some, but can't do all the words. So you have to fill in some blanks. I hope I figured it out:-)
Thank you to Joshua for coming to visit my blog and sharing in the adventure of this new means of communication.

Hey Ang its nice to see that you guys have things like cars and McDonalds..LOL It does look pretty out there.
People here have lots of things to play on like 4 wheelers, cars, motorcycles, scooters, horses, boats, skidoos...There are so many things to do in the outdoors of Montana.

Thanks for giving us a tour! :)
