Holy Cross-Immaculata

Holy Cross-Immaculata is an exquisite Catholic church atop Mt. Adams. Dan and I were there for a wedding this past weekend-- I'd never been before.

The view, as you can see, is a stunning as you get in Cincinnati-- it's one of the highest points.

Thing I just learned about the church: "Archbishop John Baptist Purcell decided to build the church while praying during a severe storm at sea. He promised God that if he survived, he would build a church on the city's highest point."

But the most beautiful parts of just about any church are inside. Take a look at the ornate altar of the Immaculata.

And the very very most beautiful thing was the bride, my friend and coworker Meredith (who now needs to update her Twitter handle). In the next post: her gorgeous reception at the Cincinnati Art Museum.
