Mihai Barbu Many thanks for the picture. That soft light from the mosaics reminds me how peaceful a place of prayer can be.
Sophia Moore The soft glow on those ancient faces makes me think how steady prayer feels across the centuries. Thanks for sharing the photo.
Markéta Veselá Thanks for the photo, those mosaics in that light look like the saints are quietly listening to what's going on in the church today.
