A-Z Blogging Challenge 2024: V is for Virgin Mary

 Looking back through my travel photos I see that in many places there was, on our agendas, an Abbey, Cathedral, Chapel, Church, Convent, Monastery, Mosque, Pagoda, Synagogue, Temple or other place of worship. As we travel along the road I often take snaps of God's houses we pass by. These buildings range from ordinary to ostentatious. 

For the Blogging from A to Z April 2024 Blogging Challenge my theme is Gods' Houses. During April I invite you to join me for an online tour of Gods' Houses from my digital albums.

The Virgin Mary is venerated in some Christian religions as the mother of Jesus Christ. She is recognised in Gods' Houses by sculptures, paintings and other artworks. She is often portrayed holding a baby Jesus.
