Still amazed at the Sagrada Familia Church
I've been entering the Sagrada Familia Church a few times a week these last 10 years, and still nowadays it continues amazing me: every new detail, every new element completed, every change...
This week I really felt there like the very first time. Since next November the Pope of Rome will be consacrated the interior of the Church, the workers are hurrying up to have the naves ready for the visit. This week they have finished retiring the scaffolding they used to build the central skylight over the altar. Seeing that space finally cleared really touched me. The view of the golden rays of the vault, and the elegance of the four red porphyr columns just left me without words.
I'm excited about the many more surprises coming up along the summer, as more and more of the inside will be completed. I have no words to express the way I feel about it.
