What are all those antenas? I would not like to worship God in that place.. want to stay alive and healthy.


in any location its a church and should be respected. maybe the people who worship there, only have that place to go.

I simply have no words to describe Midle East churches!!! They are all incredible!!! Not just because of the architecture, but the history!!!! We have to analyse them with historical eyes. There was the place of the begginig of Christianism.
Good Job

St. Stepanous Cathedral in East Azarbaijan, Iran, is said to have been erected shortly after the ascension of Jesus Christ

http://img50.imageshack.us/img50/9840/qarehkelissaoo3.jpg
Qara Kelissa, West Azarbaijan. Believed by some to have been first built in 66 AD by Saint Jude. Local Armenians believe that he and Simon were both buried here.

Christianity in Iran has had a long history. The Church of St. Mary in northwestern Iran is considered by some historians to be the second oldest church in the world, after the Church of Bethlehem in Palestine. The famous Italian traveller Marco Polo, also described the church in his itinerary during his visit.

According to the reports of the Acts of the Apostles there were Persians, Parthians and Medes among the very first new Christian converts at Pentecost. Since then, there had been a continuous presence of Christians and churches in Persia/Iran.

The main Christian churches are:

Armenian Apostolic Church of Iran
Assyrian Church of the East of Iran
Chaldean Catholic Church of Iran
various Protestant denominations, most important of which are:
Presbyterian, including the Assyrian Evangelical Church
Jama'at-e Rabbani (the Iranian Assemblies of God churches)
and the Anglican Church of Iran.

Our Lady of Arabia:

"The Holy Father, Pope Pius XII, himself gave a grand lead to this devotion to Our Lady of Arabia, and on 17th December 1949, on the eve of the Great Jubilee Year, in the Vatican Palace, he personally blessed the new Statue of Our Lady of Arabia, and consented to be photographed in prayer before it.

The Statue was received in Kuwait and formally enthroned on 6th January 1950, amidst triumphal rejoicing at her Shrine in Ahmadi."

Shrine of Our Lady Of Mantara:

It is said that virgin marry waited for her son in a cave on the top of a hill, as jesus went to preach in the city of Sidon. The Shrine is directly built over the cave. There is also a basilica there (still under construction). This shrine is located in South Lebanon.
