Santuario de Chimayo



Plein aire watercolor

Adobe bell tower at Santuario de Chimayo, New Mexico...focus of the Holy Week pilgrimage by hundreds of believers and site of miraculous healing dirt. Step into this church and step back to medieval times, but don't doubt the power there. The room full of candles and crutches attests to the power for faith.
