The Stained Glasses, Religious Arts in San Jose Church in San Jose del Monte City, Bulacan

The Main Altar adorned with stained glass of the Resurrection

I don't think there is a need of further explanations because each of these artworks obviously reminds us of our Catholic Faith and of Biblical Events of Salvation. By merely feasting our eyes on these glasses our mind are directed to God and His great love for us and the Sacred Scriptures are becoming alive right in front of our eyes. Let us simply enjoy them and let them guide us to prayers and worship of God.
