I sang at this Church on Sun, Mar. 20 - St. Januarius' in Naples, NY. What does it look like to you? I think it looks like a giant mushroom. I was told by an elderly gentleman, who was the son of the man who built it, that the stained glass holes are designed after grapes and the roof is a fallen grape leaf, as the church is built in wine country. Some kids call it the jelly bean church for obvious reasons. Have yo ever seen anything like it? I sang at the only Sunday Mass there, at 10am. There were about 80-100 people present. I think the sermon, given by Fr. George was one of hte very few to ever actually make me cry. I was up there blowing and blowing my nose to keep it from dripping down my throat, so I could still sing. Something he said led me into a meditation that made me really experience an even BIGGER God, His intellegence, control, humaness, and compassion. Great stuff for further contemplation.
