The Church of the Attitudes, Er, Beatitudes









Our visit to the Church of the Beatitudes was very memorable. In addition to all the signs, we had a nun shouting at us, and a rude group of Yankees behind us. 15 minutes before it was their turn to use the "celebration site" they were already making comments in LOUD voices like, "They said they know there's another group coming but they're still sitting there." And while our devotional leader was closing in prayer, "Come on, amen, already! Amen, already!"

Actually, despite the attitudes, it is a very beautiful place. The church is very attractive inside and out and it is located in a lovely spot, with manicured lawns, trees, flowers and a wonderful view of Lake Galilee below.
