Montreal Revisted Part 2

Saint Joseph's Oratory


A visit to Quebec's largest Catholic church



Different Shrines at the Catholic Church

Anyone know anything about a 2-headed apostle? - See the middle statue.
Good Catholics can lit a candle for $5!!! Less fortunate Catholics can pay $1 to light smaller candles. So sad!

Shrine to a man - not to our Creator
A place to confess one's sins to their priest...again, another sad reminder of how different Catholicism is from our relationship with God is - we as Christians have a direct access to God the Father through His Son, Jesus.


The canes from all the people who were "healed" by Brother Andrew....quite interesting.
The rock where water supposedly comes from the rock perpetually


It was so super windy outside, but after being in such a spiritually dark place (inside the basilica), it was refreshing to be outside.

Our nephew Ben came along this time to experience Montreal


The bike bridge - for bicycles, roller blades, and walkers only - no cars.
