Mono Monday Plus#6 - The Pulpit


At long last i can now post my blog!! After almost four days of glitches and crazy broadband connections!

My mono is from my revisiting the past within the walled City of the Spanish Colonial Manila! It is inside a UNESO World Heritage site calle the San Agustin Church built by the Spnish Agustinian Friars in 1587 and finished in 1607... it has withstood earthquakes from that time to the present and withstood many wars such as the British invasion of Manila in 1762, the Spanish-American War in 1898, and the JApanese invasion in 1942!

Showcased here is the "center of power" of the church then, built with intricate European artwork of the 1600s and with gold inlay, here is the San Agustin Church...


"PULPIT"



I was hoping the conversion will take us back to that time in the early 1600 AD and show the majesty of the Pulpit, to where Catholics of olden times literally LOOK-Up to, Adoringly Venerate and listen to the Words and/or Wrath of the Lord through the Friar's SERMON... lol...
