Cathedral Square

Kernave Church

Kernavė was the ancient capital of Lithuania. It is famous because of its "hill forts".

Churches of Vilnius: Church of St. Theresa

This was my favorite of all all the churches we visited.

Churches of Vilnius: Russian Orthodox Church of the Holy Spirit

Churches of Vilnius: St. Casmir's

We attended Mass at this church once.

Churches of Vilnius: Russian Orthodox Church of St. Nicholas

This Church was very beautiful. We walked past it almost every day we were in Vilnius.

Almost every time we passed it, Sarah would lean over to me and say, "Oh! Have we been in that Church before?"

"Yes, Sarah. Remember. That is the church that wouldn't let us take pictures in."

And she would say, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, Sarah. I am sure. Because I remember sitting on that bench right there because the insense aroma was so strong in there."

She would shrug. "Oh. Okay."

After a while I started answering the question before she asked it.

Churches of Vilnius: Bernadine Church

This church was defaced by the Soviets and is in the process of being restored.

Alive

... and coming home soon. More when I get back.
