Paris - Day 14

The next day, we spent another day exploring Paris. This time, we visited the Arc de Triomphe and walked along the Champs-Élysées.

As expected, the area was crowded with tourists, but we still managed to capture some beautiful photos.





After that, we had lunch at a nearby ramen restaurant before continuing our walk through the city.









Later in the afternoon, we visited the Church of the Miraculous Medal at Rue du Bac.




Here is a short story about this special church and the Miraculous Medal:

Tucked away on a quiet street in Paris stands the Church of the Miraculous Medal—a place of grace, silence, and countless answered prayers.

In 1830, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared here to a humble novice, St. Catherine Labouré. During the apparition, Our Lady asked that a medal be made, bearing the words: “O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.” She promised great graces to all who wore the medal with faith.

From this small chapel, the Miraculous Medal spread throughout the world, becoming a symbol of hope, healing, and trust in Mary’s intercession. Millions have worn it in times of suffering, uncertainty, and prayer.

Today, pilgrims come quietly to light candles, touch the altar of the apparitions, and entrust their intentions to Our Lady. In the heart of bustling Paris, this church remains a hidden sanctuary—where faith speaks softly and miracles continue to unfold in silence.

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...
