Mount Grace Chape is a Perpetual Adoration Chapel.
Jesus and Bells
Ave Gratia Plena
"Hail, Full of Grace"
His shield translates to "Who is Like God"
Which is what Michael means.
Rose Window
There are angels depicted, with St. Michael at the top.
View from the Back Pew!
That would be a pink sister in the center praying.

Could you let us know where this is? I've never been able to find it, though I could just be totally inobservant. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, have you been to Our Lady of the Holy Cross on the North Side (over by Calvary/Bellefontaine cemetery, I think)? The Post-Dispatch just did a story about how they have a dog that comes to Mass. (Not a service dog -- just the pastor's pet.) Could be worth investigating...

Yes, that is St. Michael the Archangel
ReplyDeleteThat Post story was wild.
ReplyDeleteOur Lady of the Holy Cross is on my list for February. It is in such a bad neighborhood I'm scared to go alone so I have to find a friend.
ReplyDeleteThe Mount Grace Chapel is off of Adeliade. You can take 70 to Adeliade. Then turn the direction that is not the river.
