I started this page
in 2010, as I sat at my son's bedside. One night at Children's Hospital, San
Diego, using a tiny lamp to type by, I began searching places around
the world that share Judeo-Christian places of worship. There are more
places yet to be added. If you have a favorite a house of worship in your
country or state, I'd love to hear about it, just name the place. I'll add it to
these Sacred Destinations. No place is too small or humble, too grand or
splendid!
Blessings,
Kathie
