EDITORS COMMENTS
"Angels Guarding the Thresholds of Faith and Healing: St. Roch's Cemetery in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Nestled in the heart of the Bywater district in New Orleans, Louisiana, lies the historic St. Roch's Cemetery, a place of deep spiritual significance for many. Established in 1822, this cemetery is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and enduring faith of the community. The entrance to St. Roch's Cemetery is guarded by a pair of majestic angels, their wings outstretched, watching over those who enter. Saint Roch, the Patron Saint of Miraculous Cures, is believed to intercede on behalf of those seeking healing. For generations, sick believers have made their way to this hallowed ground, hoping for a miraculous recovery. The architecture of St. Roch's Cemetery reflects the unique blend of French, Spanish, and African influences that characterize New Orleans. The above-ground tombs, a common feature in the city's cemeteries, are adorned with intricate carvings and vibrant colors, creating a visually stunning and otherworldly atmosphere. Despite the passage of time and the challenges of living in a city prone to natural disasters, St. Roch's Cemetery remains an important pilgrimage site for those seeking solace, healing, and a connection to the past. As the sun sets over the city, the angels at the entrance continue to watch over the faithful, offering a reminder of the enduring power of faith and hope." By JC, from Discover Images by AWL.
