Church of Annunciation

A short walk from the Church of Mary’s Well is the largest church in Galilee, The Church of Annunciation. Built over the site tradition identified as the home of Mary, this Catholic Church is filled with beautiful stained glass windows and art. In fact, every nation in the world has donated an art piece to the church representing the angel’s annunciation to Mary. There were two worship services in progress as we visited, a large service in the main sanctuary of the church, and a small service in the lower level in front of the grotto believed to have been the home of Mary. I am always moved when I see people engaged in worshipping the Savior.
