Most people would take pictures of the floats at Mardi Gras, but I found it much more interesting to photograph the atmosphere surrounding the festivities. I find the beads in the trees and everything so very iconic.

From the perspective of one who falls on their knees.

"As they were looking on, so we too gaze on his wounds as he hangs. We see his blood as he dies. We see the price offered by the redeemer, touch the scars of his resurrection. He bows his head, as if to kiss you. His heart is made bare open, as it were, in love to you. His arms are extended that he may embrace you. His whole body is displayed for your redemption. Ponder how great these things are. Let all this be rightly weighed in your mind: as he was once fixed to the cross in every part of his body for you, so he may now be fixed in every part of your soul." – St. Augustine

Welcome to California’s first mission.

Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcalá

"California’s first mission was founded on July 16, 1769 by Saint Junípero Serra, a Franciscan priest. The Mission was relocated to the present site in 1774 in order to be closer to the American Indian (Kumeyaay) villages, a reliable source of water and good land for farming.

The first of a chain of 21 missions that stretch northward along the coast of California, Mission San Diego became known as the Mother of the Missions. In 1775, just one year after the first adobe church was completed, the mission was raided by Indians and an open fire ensued and the mission suffered substantial damage. Padre Luis Jayme was killed in this attack when he tried to calm the Indians. Padre Jayme became the first Christian Martyr in California and is buried in the Mission Sanctuary.

Padre Serra returned to the gutted site in 1776 and began to restore the church and mission buildings. This time, however, the Padres built an outer defense wall around the complex to protect the mission in the event from any future attacks. By 1790, most to the reconstruction we completed. The church and other buildings were arranged in a quadrangle around a courtyard.

The year 1797 opened another chapter in the growth of the San Diego Mission. Five hundred and sixty-five Indians received baptism, which brought the number of converts to 1405. The land area grew to 55,000 acres. Vineyards, orchards, and vegetable gardens began to thrive and wheat, barley, corn and beans were harvested.

It is recorded the mission owned 20,000 sheep, 10,000 cattle and 1250 horses. During an 1813 construction to enlarge the church, buttress wings were added to give earthquake stability to the façade and to provide a more welcoming appearance.

In 1821, when Mexico gained its independence from Spain, Mission San Diego was given to Santiago Arguello. After the U.S. - Mexican War and the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, the United States Cavalry used the mission as a military presence from 1850-1857. The soldiers made some temporary repairs to the decayed buildings in order make them habitable. In 1862, the Mission lands were restored to the Church by order of President Abraham Lincoln.

The present mission church was named a minor basilica by Pope Paul VI in the bicentennial year of 1976. Today, it serves as an active parish for the Catholic community and as a cultural center for people of all faiths who are most welcome to visit the mission." -Mission history on basilica website.

"Cheer cheer for old Notre Dame,
Wake up the echoes cheering her name,

Send a volley cheer on high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky.

What though the odds be great or small,

Old Notre Dame will win over all,

While her loyal sons and daughters

March on to victory." - Victory March

The Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame

I have been to many Basilicas, But this one left me speechless and is my absolute favorite. I have visited Campus many times for Football and basketball games . But this time the posture of my heart for for the Lord and to capture the beauty of University of Notre Dame and find solace. The Campus reminds me of a monastery. I could imagine being a student here and finding solace for my soul. This place is a real treasure. May God always bless the University of Notre Dame.

The Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame is not only a remarkable example of Gothic Revival architecture but also a profound symbol of faith and tradition at the university. Among its most treasured features are the stained glass windows and the bells, each holding deep artistic, spiritual, and historical significance. The 116 stained glass windows, crafted in France in the 19th century, are among the most extensive collections of their kind in the world. These windows do more than beautify the interior—they serve as a visual catechism, illustrating biblical scenes, the lives of saints, and the history of Catholicism. As sunlight passes through the vibrant glass, it casts colorful reflections that inspire awe and reflection, creating an environment steeped in sacred storytelling and contemplative beauty.

Equally significant are the bells of the Basilica, which have rung out across the Notre Dame campus for generations. Housed in the 218-foot tower, the carillon of 23 bells serves both a functional and symbolic purpose. They mark the passage of time, call the faithful to worship, and celebrate moments of joy and solemnity. Their sound is a constant reminder of the university's Catholic identity and communal spirit. The resonance of the bells links past and present, connecting students, faculty, alumni, and visitors in a shared experience of tradition, spirituality, and belonging. Together, the stained glass and bells are not merely decorative or ceremonial—they are vital expressions of the Basilica’s sacred mission and the enduring soul of Notre Dame.

Touchdown Jesus. (Word of Life Mural)

The artwork depicts a procession of figures representing Christian saints, thinkers, teachers, and writers, a topic that connected to the idea of the library. Figures were selected from different centuries and places to convey the concept of the Catholic Church's historical continuity. At the top of the procession the central figure is the resurrected Jesus Christ, conceived as the great teacher and master, and the fountain of knowledge contained in the library. The artwork, which is titled Word of Life, is 134 feet tall and 68 feet wide.

It's made out of 131 different types of Granite, marble and other stones.
