very,very nice!!.i used to go to this church many times........i even played the organ, duriing a wedding mass for a special friend.

[JasAlf5959]

Thanks for appreciation. Yes, the church is very beautiful. It was a sentimental event indeed and to be remembered for a long, long time for both, playing the organ for a special friend and the wedding mass.

What has all this got to do with Christ and his teachings?? This is the inheritance of Byzantium!!!

[JasAlf5959]

Nothing.  It is though the house of worship. We all decorate our houses - kings and queens have nice palaces. Why shouldn't the house of the King of kings be also decorated?

[tedattard]

A magnificent church with a heavenly choir to boot. PROSIT and very well done

[JasAlf5959]

Thanks Ted. Jasmine calls it the choir with Angelic voices. You think there's an orchestra accompanying the choir but there isn't.

The Basilica reached its peak of beauty.

Well done Alfred and Jasmine. St Georges Chapter is a hard working one.

[JasAlf5959]

Thanks for your comments. Yes, they are hard working and they put their hearts into their work. I'm proud to have Georgian-Gozitan blood.

[JasAlf5959]

Yes, John, it is magnificent and one doesn't get tired touring and looking around it. It is also very well taken care of.

The choir is awesome. Our friend Fr George Frendo and his siter Maria are doing a magnificent job. They create voice music.

Thanks.
