Had a lovely day out and here are some


photos of the time we had

The first stop was the Galilee house
The house is above the Sanctuary of Beatitudes, near the top of the mountain known as the Beatitudes. It is directly in front of Lake Tiberias( sea of Galilee), above Tabgha, the place of the first multiplication of the bread, and Capernaum. One and a half kilometers away, the ancient ruins of Korazim can be found. These ruins were brought to light in recent years. The project rises near the road that in ancient days united Korazim and Capernaum, on the shores of the lake.


Kiko Arguello designed, together with a team of architects Antonio Abalos and Guillermo Soler, Spanish; Mattia Del Prete, Italian; and the above mentioned Gottfried Klaiber, the grand building of the Domus Galilaeae a centre of biblical formation and place to receive pilgrims to the Holy Land, where he has recently finished the painting of the Last Judgement that decorates the church of this new building a lot pilgrims start they journey from this house

It is a very beautiful buiding with a lot of natural light and pretty gardens around the place bringing nature into the building.

Looking at this two sorts of renewable energy.
