Our church was built through the centuries and each period of time left its trace. Its beginnings go back to the 12th century. It has a baroque pulpit and a funny face at the beginning of the gothic arch, beautiful baroque altars and a ceiling that is painted in diverse patterns and colors. The church is relatively big for a small village of no more than 30 houses, yet its inhabitants feel responsible for the maintenance and preservation of this gem for the future generations. |
They successfully restored the church's tower and its roof. They are almost done with the exterior walls and new drainage. Village volunteers spent numerous hours working and helping with the difficult projects, they organized benefits, but life is still hard on our mountain and money is always short so I decided to publish a book of which the proceeds will go to a fund for the restoration of the interior starting with the ceiling. It is hard to see those beautiful colors fade and statues of angels and saints lose their instruments and tools and gold leaf surface chipping away. I visit my family about once a year and every time I can see the progress and every time my little church looks more beautiful. I will continue to take pictures of the progress, and I will continue to put them on this web page, so that all the good people, who through my book donated money for it, can see it too. I sincerely thank each one of you for your generosity and God Bless You over and over again! |
This book contains some of the basic Catholic Prayers similar to the ones that my mum thought me as a child and a suggestion of a program for a prayer group or a family hour of prayer. It is also meant for the individuals who feel the need to spend more time in prayer. Well... donations are aslo welcome: |
