A praying family
behind the Sangyu Church is a small hill on which top a virgin mary statue decorated with plastic flowers. During my last 3 time visits, i met few pilgrims coming here, might because we just made a short visit here on saturday. But this time when we got on the top courtyard, we saw a family kneed on the step before the Virgin Mary statue and were praying in low voices and sang later songs in Chinese.
The father sent his son come to the upper steps and let him led others praying. I wonder he could remember that much words. From their accent i guess they from other provinces. From the top of the hill, i could birdview the whole village. It is a quiet, isolated place surrounded by mountains and good for learning doctrines and reflect oneself.
