USA - St. Benedict Catholic Church
Painted Church im Süden Konas
St. Benedict Catholic Church
Das Besondere an dieser Kirche offenbart sich allerdings im Inneren, denn es gibt noch einen anderen Namen für die schöne St. Benedict Catholic Church - die "bemalte Kirche".John Velghe, damaliger Missionar, Pater und Erbauer der Kirche, hatte eine wundervolle Idee: Er bemalte die Wände und Decke mit dreidimensionalen, biblischen Szenen, wie zum Beispiel Kains Mord an seinem Bruder Abel. An der Decke über dem Altar zeichnete er ein gotisches Gewölbe ein.
Da viele Bewohner Hawaiis zur damaligen Zeit weder lesen noch schreiben konnten, waren die Fresken gute Hilfsmittel, um der Bevölkerung den christlichen Glauben bildhaft näherzubringen.
