"I went into an Orthodox Church."

One of the things like about the Orthodox Church, is their icons, they are beautiful.

The Church I went into in fact, had Mary's arms around the altar, this may be a common theme in Eastern Orthodox Churches.

The same concept as in that world's largest Eucharist idea in Chicago but of course, the artistic style is in the manner of the icons. - http://marysaggies.blogspot.com/2008/06/nine-foot-monstrance.html
