Today was quite a warm but othrwise, nice and bright day. Nilly, my daugter took her friend Heda and me to visit the Beit Gemal Abbey situated on the way to Jeusalem.
We had a nice welcome by the nuns who knew Heda personally. Heda is a professional photographer who several years ago exhibited her work at the convent. Several of her beautiful photographs still hang in the convent' lobby.
We were taken along to see parts of this beautiful convent. I was thrilled to see a large diorama displaying
scene from the Old and New Testaments.
Nilly took lots of photos, a few I will share with you.
The entrance, hidden by trees.
The lobby or visiors room, with Heda's photographs on the wall.

The diorama. Poke the picture to see better.
Gorgeous, hand painted ceramics which are sold at the convent's shop
It was one of those peaceful days that left me with a sense of tranquility.
Blessings to you my dear readers.
