Fancy Churches?

Right or wrong?

While touring, I took nearly one hundred photos, wanting to recapture a few precious memories of the grandeur and sanctity of the many worship spaces inside the Shrine.

When I returned to my hotel, I promptly uploaded many... READ MORE

A Day in the City

Come along on a "cool" getaway

Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Tuesday, July 13, 2010

Yesterday, Greg had a meeting up in San Francisco, so I decided to tag along for a break from our 100 degree temperatures.  It felt so wonderful to see the Bay, put on a jacket, enjoy noon Mass at St. John of God, and walk in the gardens of Golden Gate Park. I thought you might enjoy seeing this little video, which was shot and edited entirely with my iPhone and the new iMovie App. The music featured is “Amazed” by Sean Clive. Enjoy!

When friends... READ MORE
