St. Peter and Paul Greek Orthodox Church

Last night, we visited the St. Peter and Paul Greek Orthodox Church and it was fascinating! I loved seeing all the icons and hearing their individual stories. I looked up the church on the internet and found its website:

St. Peter and Paul Greek Orthodox Church

The website features a message from Fr. George about the installation of new icons in the dome this summer. The church takes pride in it's beauty, as the Kingdom of God should be as beautiful as possible, and therefore the icons are a major addition to this beautiful church. And, let me tell you, the church was nothing less of beautiful. The pale blue walls and small interior create a sense of calmness, serenity, and comfort upon entering. The smell of incense seeped in the walls and again gave a feeling of coziness and welcome. The icons no doubt added color and fascination to this little church. They were bold and simple, which made them not too heavy on detail and easier for the eyes to linger on. Overall, the church visit was a great experience and I encourage you to check out their website!
