Title: St. Julian of Norwich in Mexico
Location: Section 123, Downtown (near Chinese palace)
exploration Author: Brainwashed Poet.
This time it was and was walking around Chinatown in Mexico City. Stepping business failures, dirty bars and depressing building I found a parish with collapsed roofs, ie it is only the facade. Despite being ruined his garden was care, also had a new sign that said "Santa Juliana of Norwich " funny name, very English for a chapel in Chinatown. Well Dona Juliana (pictured below with that classic style that is painted by the saints, as someone who wants to throw a fart but do not want noise-) was a mystical XIV century English Benedictine (translation : nun who believed in Christ to see her panties), drafted her revelations in a manuscript called "Revelations of Divine Love " , which, incidentally, can be read in one of its passages, the following statement: " As is true that God is our Father, God really is our Mother." was a passionate suffering, every day asking three wishes: 1) feel deeply the passion of Christ (!), 2) serious illness to be worthy and 3) live, always in union with God. At age 30 she fell ill and suffered happily until his death.
This does not tell us much of the original church, but gives us a fact: it is or was in honor of Julian of Norwich , English saint. However in the poster that is outside the church and doubts were just all makes sense, says Social Ministry
This building is now regarded as national heritage as it is one of the two existing buildings representatives in Mexico English Gothic Renaissance. The Anglican community decided to make this heritage in the British Museum American Mexico. The renovations have not yet started but here's the blueprint: http://www.christchurchmexico.org/MBAM.pdf . So if you want to see the corpse before it is revived, you know, Section 123, historic downtown.
