The Carmel Mission

The Carmel Mission... Such an emotional Visit for me. Read all about its History here

Just lovely!

Hey! I know you guys!

At this Baptismal font my boys were Baptized and Given to Christ

First, Brandon in 1988, and then William in 1991

Now, this is a Church!

Mom and I have never seen a Candle stand we could resist! We lit one

for Oma, dad's surgery, my safe return Home, one for our Brandon and

William and my brother James... And, I lit one for mom too!

God lives here and you can Feel him everywhere

inside this chest are remnants of the Original wooden

casket of Father Junipero Serra

The new Alter

Father Serra is buried here under the floor beside the Alter

ask him anything... My dad knows!

In this Chapel at the Carmel Mission on December 14, 1991,

also our sixth Wedding anniversary...

on this spot, before this Alter... We were Married in the Church

I like to say it's where we Got it Right!

It was a Perfect day... Then and today!
