The Church Of Saint John The Baptist And Monastery
Tradition generally attributes the place of birth for John the Baptist to be in a small village that during that time was Southwest of the city of Jerusalem. Ein Karem is a quaint village that has currently been incorporated into the city of Jerusalem. The Church and Monastery were built over the ruins of the ancient Byzantine and Crusader Chapels.
This spectacular Roman Catholic Church has amazing architecture from several different periods of history. The church has beautiful murals and glass with outstanding tiles. What makes it even more magnificent, it the seamless way it all blends together.
The Biblical account of the birth of John The Baptist begins in the First Chapter Of Luke. It is in this recorded event that we know of his humble beginnings.

SAINT-JEAN-BAPTISTE, A PRESENCE IN THE HEART OF THE CITY
Welcome to the site of Saint-Jean-Baptiste Parish in Montreal. Its church is one of the largest parish churches in Quebec, with 2,500 seats. In addition to its striking beauty, the church houses a real community project, cultural, cultural, heritage and charity. A vast network of contributions, deeply rooted in the life of its Plateau Mont-Royal neighborhood, gave new vitality to this parish founded in 1874.
Thank you for reading @redouanemez.
You bring to our view the pictures of the places some of us may not have opportunity to travel. Thanks to you so very much. More grace to you.
Your welcome @praise-eu.
Excellent post, a very beautiful church, beautiful architecture, I invite you to visit me, a big hug
Thank you @bolivarense.
Wow amazing
Thank you @atta09.
I'm sure it isn't his birth place. Any more than any of the Catholic Church's relics are authentic.
It is the traditional birth place. Thanks for reading.
What beautiful pictures. I am especially interested in architecture. I think builders of yesteryear had special skills in architecture and more elegant insinuations. Thank you for sharing this article.
