The Three Cities

It's a Maltese tradition to visit seven churches on Maunday Thursday, and with Theressa's Aunt Lily visiting for Easter, it was a perfect time to do go to "the three cities"--three peninsulas that share the Grand Harbour with Valletta.
Some of the churches were actually closed (strange for the Holy Week) so we actually only made it inside three churches. But the ones we visited were absolutely beautiful. Seeing the paintings and statues of Christ on the cross encouraged and emboldened me, flooding my mind with reminders of what our Beautiful Savior did for us!
The Three Cities area is one of the most beautiful places on the island.
Scores of sailboats docked in the Grand Harbour. It was such a gift from the Lord to be able to go from "glory to glory"--beautiful churches to beautiful creation! Stir in up a passion for Your Name in our hearts, Lord! Posted by Picasa
