Christianity
Last week I asked you to write a list of your own ten commandments. Did you manage to follow any? Was it difficult?
Click on the link below and take this virtual tour of St. Georges Cathedral in London. It has been a place of Christian worship for more than 1,000 years, but a cathedral only since the creation of the diocese of Southwark in 1905. Between 1106 and 1538 it was the church of an Augustinian priory, Southwark Priory.
Your task this week is to draw your own birds eye view of a church or cathedral and label all the important parts such as:
pew, vestry, lectern, pulpit, candle, alter etc..
I can draw a birds eye view of a church and label all the important parts.
