Hi Elizabeth! Thanks for the clarification. That's a significant detail!!

Glad you like my blog. :)

Hi there! Really enjoy reading your blog for daily inspiration. :)

Just wanted to let you know that the second church above is actually located in Chicago, IL in the Ukrainian Village neighborhood on the near west side. I have walked past it a million times, always so curious to see the interior -- so thank you for posting! It is just as beautiful inside as I've always imagined.

Thanks for doing what you do!
