Our Lady of the Sierras, Sierra Vista, Arizona. August 2019. |
Our Lady of the Sierras - another Arizonan couple compelled to build a church. "Another" in that some weeks earlier, a friend and I visited the Byzantine church on Mount Lemmon, in the town of Summerhaven.
Gosh, gorgeous views from the church.

How peaceful it must be to sit in a chair during a service and gaze out the window, while listening to the voice of the Mass celebrants.
