Christmas Tidings

 

The fourth of the Advent candle has been lit today, 'The Angels Candle' which stands for love

2013: |Centenary of John Nicholson (1840-1913)

Art and angels combine in St Thomas Church on the Isle of man which is full of John Nicholson's art where angels musical and flying can be seen in the chancel and on the stamps.  More wings on the mural of the mini sheet with the archangel Michael fighting the many headed dragon (representing the devil) and Mark the Evangelist, the winged lion.

A Merry and Blessed Christmas to All

The IoM souvenir sheet is lovely. And the bright light of the candle is a nice indoor touch.
