The church is surrounded by a commercial street. The appearance of the church is still good. The outside is better than the inside, and the inside is more historic than the outside.

    Amazing church. Behind the high fence it looks like a shed in a large industrial area and doesn’t indicate it’s hidden inside! First of all, it’s quite big compared to our church, and the decoration and lighting are amazing. Then, it was really crowded, and the enthusiasm of these people from all walks of life (must represent the whole world) was impressive. The comrades of the Geagea father were very family-themed! The spectacle continues to spread outside in the church’s front yard, which is also packed with beautifully decorated hotels and chapels, a magnificent Christmas tree, and despite everything, the atmosphere is great! Given the place a truly separate place!

    Formerly a very small church, but now it has begun to take shape and feel relaxed in it.
