I stepped into another church again. This one also sat in the middle of Dublin’s city centre, this time on Clarendon Street. The website describes St. Teresa’s as a quiet oasis of prayer and that was certainly true. On the streets, people were rushing about but once inside, there was utter quiet.

People entered and wandered into particular chapels to light candles, pray. Perhaps to simply sit and be.

I wandered …

… just enough to “discover” the stained glass.

I didn’t wander long but I didn’t need to in order to see the beauty of the place.

I could find no literature on the tables about the building’s art and architecture.

An eclectic mix of styles accrued over time as tastes vary.

Whatever one’s desire, for prayer, for quiet, to view beautiful art, it is a lovely place for a respite.  More about St. Teresa’s on Clarendon Street, Dublin can be found via this link:  http://clarendonstreet.com/
