A quiet and pleasant place


 
Tabernacle in American College Chapel ~ Leuven, Belgium

"For me the tabernacle has always been a Bethany, a quiet and pleasant place where Christ resides. A place where we can tell Him about our worries, our sufferings, our desires, our joys, with the same sort of simplicity and naturalness as Martha, Mary and Lazarus. That is why I rejoice when I stumble upon a church in town or in the country; it’s another tabernacle, another opportunity for the soul to escape and join in intention our Lord in the Sacrament."

St Josemaria Escriva
Excerpt from Christ is Passing By
