The Archdiocesan Sanctuary of Health and Peace, known as the Church of Father Eust\u00e1quio, was envisioned and planned by the Blessed Eust\u00e1quio himself during his time in Belo Horizonte. The Dutch priest did not live to see the completed work, but he was the one who laid the cornerstone of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a legacy for the people of Belo Horizonte, Father Eust\u00e1quio left a plan for how the temple should be built. The construction is full of symbolism, and we've selected some of them for you to learn about today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first has to do with the facade of the Sanctuary. Did you know that the stained-glass windows in front of the church were chosen for a very special reason? They depict the seven sacraments of the church: Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another interesting feature of the church's architecture is found in the main doors of the Sanctuary. The three doors represent the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, did you already know these interesting facts about the Sanctuary of Health and Peace?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
