Trials,Tribulations and Happy Moments in my busy life

Aylesford Priory

Hi folks,
well I did the "Peace Garden" in the rain so time to shelter from the weather inside for the last part of the Priory.


Last one from the outside with the rain still pouring down.


Close up of the Altar through the left hand archway.


Through the right door we entered St Anne's Chapel.


The walls with ceramics tell a story of Mary's parents. The green walls reflect hope and new life.

An Angel appears to Joachim in the fields telling him his prayers are answered.


He meets his wife Anne at the city gates and she tells him that she is pregnant at long last.


The birth of Mary.


Anne and Mary going to the temple so Mary can be dedicated to the service of God.


Finally a candle shot with all the vibrant colours.


Back in the rain which was still falling so we decided to call it a day but not before a couple of outside shots.


And seeing as it was lovely weather for ducks I decided to add one.


Hope you enjoyed the visit.

Thanks for looking.

Best Regards, Mike
