The church Saint - Maximin is a catholic church located near the Lutheran Temple in the district of the Old Town in Metz in Moselle . It is placed under the name of Bishop Maximin of Trier , who died in 347. The Romanesque church is located in the district Outre - Seille , 68 rue Mazelle.
The construction of this church Romanesque dated xii th century xv th century. The choir, the transept and square tower of the xii th century are an important testimony of the Romanesque period. The nave dates from the xv th century. In the southern transept, the chapel of Louve and Gournay dates from 1365, a gift of Poinsignon Dieu Amy. The young Jacques-Benigne Bossuet pronounced on October 24, 1658, one of the first funeral orations, that of Henry de Gournay. A baroque portal replaces in 1753 the first ogival door
The church houses the only known stained glass windows designed by Jean Cocteau; the stained glass windows were put in place at the end of the 1960s according to cartons from 1962. The stained glass work by Jean Cocteau in Metz is undoubtedly his last great masterpiece substantially completed posthumously since died October 11, 1963. It Edouard Dermit , his adopted son who will ensure the full implementation of the project designed by Jean Cocteau.
The most convincing message signified by central stained glass seems to be that of immortality. Obviously, if Cocteau has made the two characters appear so clearly in this axial stained glass (the praying and his double), we can not ignore and ignore the content of their invocation to know the faith in immortality. Moreover, it is this same immortality that any artist seeks through his work whose goal would be to create a work that succeeds him. Jean Cocteau himself, making this last creation the most important before his death, had to think about it all the time. He did not stop his life during his use of mythology and in particular the character of Orphée to bring back to life the dear ones and make them even immortal. Regarding the Orphée filmfrom 1950, it is said in particular in the blog The Eye on the Screen : Jean Cocteau transposes the myth of Orpheus to the present time ... The man is saved, Death dies, it is the myth of immortality. ' .

Art History Tour in Provence with Artful Journeys
Who wouldn't want to spend cool and crisp autumn afternoons walking in the footsteps of some of France's most celebrated painters?
From November 5 to 14, 2018, Artful Journeys presented Art History in Provence, a guided travel tour focusing on the many illustrious artists who once made their home in the South of France, such as Cezanne, Renoir, Chagall, Picasso, and Van Gogh.
While exploring the creative journeys of these creative giants, travelers also experienced the culinary wealth of the Provence/ Côte d'Azur region with rich local cuisine and bright fruity wines. So because of our small group size, we were able to enjoy the sights, sounds, and tastes without the limits of a larger group.
In addition to the three overnight cities of Nice, Aix-en-Provence, and Arles, the group visited sites in Antibes, Les Baux-de-Provence, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Cagnes-sur-Mer, Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume, and Avignon.
The museums and sites visited included Fine Arts Museum of Nice, Chagall Museum, Picasso Museum, Renoir Museum, Cézanne Studio, Saint-Paul Asylum, Mary Magdalene Basilica, Carrières de Lumières, among others.
With plenty of free time, our travelers were able to explore the various cities for themselves, enjoying the local culture, shopping and had time to relax.
The tour, led by Director Joan Hill, tour guide Sevan Melikyan, and Assistant Director Carla Bohnett...who also took most of the pictures seen in this video.

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered liscenced tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this calling in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, glide over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and see the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.

The Assumption of Mary into Heaven (often shortened to the Assumption) is, according to the beliefs of the Catholic Church, Eastern and Oriental Orthodoxy,[3] as well as parts of Anglicanism, the bodily taking up of the Virgin Mary into Heaven at the end of her earthly life.
The Catholic Church teaches as dogma that the Virgin Mary having completed the course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into heavenly glory.[4] This doctrine was dogmatically defined by Pope Pius XII on 1 November 1950, in the apostolic constitution Munificentissimus Deus by exercising papal infallibility.[5] While the Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodox Church believe in the Dormition of the Theotokos (“the Falling Asleep of the Mother of God”),[6] whether Mary had a physical death has not been dogmatically defined. In Munificentissimus Deus (item 39) Pope Pius XII pointed to the Book of Genesis (3:15) as scriptural support for the dogma in terms of Mary's victory over sin and death through her intimate association with “the new Adam” (Christ)[7] as also reflected in 1 Corinthians 15:54: then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.[8][9][10]
The New Testament contains no explicit narrative about the death or Dormition, nor of the Assumption of Mary, but several scriptural passages have been theologically interpreted to describe the ultimate fate in this and the afterworld of the Mother of Jesus (see below).[11]
In the churches that observe it, the Assumption is a major feast day, commonly celebrated on 15 August. In many countries, the feast is also marked as a Holy Day of Obligation in the Roman Catholic Church.
