Pequeno templo, cuja matriz inicial remonta ao ano de 1698, tendo sido posteriormente reedificado no final do século XIX. A vila de Paço de Arcos, pela sua localização, esteve desde sempre ligada às actividades piscatórias, daí que esta capela tenha sido erguida em honra do

Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes, padroeiro das gentes do mar. A devoção local ao padroeiro desta capela é provavelmente anterior à construção da capela e estará relacionada com a proteção que a enseada de Paço de Arcos ofereceria aos navegantes que ali ocorriam procurando

abrigo das tempestades no mar.

A capela é constituída por uma só nave, rematada por uma abóbada de berço animada por painel de estuque de motivos geométricos (limitado à zona correspondente ao altar-mor), apresentando também muros revestidos por rodapé azulejar de padrão setecentista. Os muros da nave ostentam ainda a presença de figurações escultóricas, sobre peanhas, de São José (Epístola) e de São Sebastião (Evangelho). Este espaço é

enriquecido por alguns elementos do período barroco, nomeadamente o altar predominantemente em talha dourada.

Na zona central encontra-se uma imagem do padroeiro da vila – Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes.

Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes Chapel

  

Small temple, whose origin goes back to 1698 being rebuilt at late nineteenth century.

For its location, Paço de Arcos has always been related to fishing activities, that is why this chapel has been devoted to Lord Jesus of Navigators, Saint Patron of seafarers. The local devotion of seafarers to this chapel Saint patron probably goes back before this chapel edification and shall be most likely connected to the shelter that Paço de Arcos cove offered to seafarers that went there looking for

shelter from the sea storms.

The chapel has a single aisle crowned by an arch barrel lightened by a geometric pattern stucco panel (confined to the high altar area) and also laying out walls covered by a seventeenth century tilled pattern outskirt. The aisle walls display also sculptural elements, upon pedestals of Saint Joseph (Epistle) and Saint Sebastian (Gospel). This space is still enhanced by some baroque elements, namely the altar predominately of gilt woodwork and at the central area with an image of this village Saint Patron - Lord Jesus of Navigators.

Saint-Stephen Cathedral Metz, France, is a Rayonnant Gothic edifice built with the local yellow Jaumont limestone. Like in French Gothic architecture, the building is compact, with slight projection of the transepts and subsidiary chapels. However, it displays singular, distinctive characteristics in both its ground plan and architecture compared to most of the other cathedrals. Because of topography of Moselle valley in Metz, the common west-east axis of the ground plan could not be applied and the church is oriented north-northeast. Moreover, unlike the French and German Gothic cathedrals having three portals surmounted by a rose window and two large towers, Saint-Stephen of Metz has a single porch at its western facade. One enters laterally in the edifice by another portal placed at the south-western side of the narthex, declining the usual alignment of the entrance with the choir. The nave is supported by flying buttresses and culminates at 41.41 metres high, making one of the highest naves in the world. The height of the nave is contrasted by the relatively low height of the aisles with 14.3 metres high, reinforcing the sensation of tallness of the nave. This feature permitted the architects to create large, tall expanses of stained glass. Through its history, Saint-Stephen Cathedral was subjected to architectural and ornamental modifications with successive additions of Neoclassical and Neogothic elements.

The edification of Saint-Stephen of Metz took place on an Ancient site from the 5th century. The construction of the Gothic cathedral began in 1220 within the walls of an Ottonian basilica dating from the 10th century. The integration into the cathedral's ground plan of a Gothic chapel from the 12th century at the western end resulted in the absence of a main western portal; the south-western porch of the cathedral being the entrance of the former chapel. The work was completed around 1520 and the new cathedral was consecrated on 11 April 1552. In 1755, French architect Jacques-François Blondel was awarded by the Royal Academy of Architecture to built a Neoclassical portal at the West end of the cathedral. He disengaged the cathedral's facade by razing an adjacent cloister and three attached churches and achieved the westwork in 1764. In 1877, the Saint-Stephen of Metz was heavily damaged after a conflagration due to fireworks. After this incident, it was decided the refurbishment of the cathedral and its adornments within a Neogothic style. The western facade was completely rebuilt between 1898 and 1903; the Blondel's portal was demolished and a new Neogothic portal was added.

THE CHURCH OF CHRIST

 

A local church of Christ is simply a congregation that belongs to Christ. It is organized after the New Testament pattern of "elders, deacons and saints" (Phil. 1:1). All creeds of men are rejected and the Bible is the only standard of faith and practice. As the gospel is planted in the hearts of honest men and women (Luke 8;11; Rom. 1:16), new Christians are born (John 3:1-5; Rom. 6:1-7). Upon the instructions of the New Testament, Christians meet on the Lord's day for the Lord's supper (Mt. 26:26-30; Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 11:23-29), singing (Eph. 5:19; Col. 3:16), prayers (Acts 12:5), study of the scriptures (Acts 15:7-21) and giving contributions for the Lord's work (1 Cor. 16:1-2).

Each congregation is independent from every other congregation, claiming its autonomy under Christ (Phil. 1:1; 1 Pet. 5:1-2). It recognizes no earthly head, belongs to no association of churches, stands free from denominational churches and supports no human institutions.

It recognizes its God-given responsibility to preach the gospel according to its own ability, to provide edification to its own members, and to provide benevolence for its own needy (Acts 6) and for those saints in need in other places (1 Cor. 16:1-2; 2 Cor. 8, 9).

As the early disciples "went everywhere preaching the word" (Acts 8:4), so do 20th Century Christians. Please consider the following material as a short explanation of God instructions to man for Salvation. It is important we answer through scripture what God require of us that we might be saved.

 

How Does One Become A Christian?

 

Hear the Gospel

 

Jesus said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him anddine with him, and he with me" (Rev. 3:20). The Lord is inviting you into His kingdom. He also said, "I am the good shepherd," and he is the "door of the sheep" (John 10:7, 11). He invites the lost into the fold of safety, for danger is outside. For the lost, Jesus is the good shepherd that leaves the "ninety and nine" and looks for the "sheep that is lost," for "the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost" (Mt. 18:11-14). Jesus' sheep hear his voice and follow him (John 10:27-28) for eternal life. How do the sheep hear the voice of Jesus? We are "called by the gospel" (2 Thes. 2:14), which is "power of God unto salvation" (Rom. 1:16). It is by the word of God that faith is produced in the hearts of the lost (Rom. 10:17). Have you heard the gospel?

 

Believe

 

As the gospel story is read (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), Jesus is shown to be the Son of God (Jn. 20:27-31). Our faith rests in Him. We must believe that He is the Son of God, sacrificed for our sins (Mt. 16:13-16; John 8:24). Do you believe?

 

Repent of Sins

 

All of us have sinned (Rom. 3:23) and have died spiritually because of sin (Rom 6:23). We must face our sins and repent. Repentance is a change of mind, followed by a change of life, as illustrated in Matthew 21:28-31. The son "repented" (changed his mind) and "went" (changed his life). This repentance is required before one can be saved (Lk. 13:3-5; Acts 2:36-38). Have you repented?

 

Confess the Name of Jesus

 

Jesus warned that we must have the courage of our faith to openly confess Him with the mouth, an oral confession (Rom. 10:10). If we do not have this courage, Jesus will not confess our name as brethren (Mt. 10:32-33). People in the New Testament times confessed Jesus' name (Acts 4:10-12; 8:37). Have you confessed that Jesus is the Son of God?

 

Be Baptized

 

Yes, baptism is a Bible doctrine, commanded by Jesus (Mt. 28:18-20; Mk. 16:15-16; Luke 24:48). Baptism is not administered as a "rite of the church," as a work of human righteousness or merit, but as an act of faith (Mk. 16:16; James 2:17, 18, 20, 24). Regardless of the animosity toward baptism in the denominational world, and in spite of their denial of its place in salvation, it is administered by the authority of Jesus for the remission of sin.

Baptism is a burial (Rom. 6:1-7; Col. 2:12) in water (Jno. 3:1-5; Acts 2:38; Acts 8:38). It is for (unto, toward) the remission of sins (Acts 2:38) and is viewed in scripture as involved in "washing away sins" (Acts 22:16; 1 Pet. 3:21). It is understood by Bible students that forgiveness is not in the water, but in the blood of Christ (Mt. 26:26-28; Rom. 6:1-7). However, Jesus has placed the opportunity of reaching that blood in the act of baptism. It is at baptism that the sinner mets the blood of Christ, that the old man of sin dies, and the new birth takes place (Rom. 6:1-7; Jn. 3:1-5).

Baptism is a re-enactment of the sinner for what Jesus did for him (death, burial and resurrection, 1 Cor. 15:1-4). The sinner obeys, in baptism, a "form of the gospel" (Rom. 6:16-18) in that he becomes dead to sin as he repents, is buried in baptism, and arises to a new life in Christ (Rom., 6:1-7). There is no other act of obedience in the New Testament that so fittingly portrays the gospel in our life as baptism. It is an act of faithful obedience (Rom. 1:5; Jn. 6:28-29; 8:39), not an act of merit or of human righteousness (Tit. 3:5). At the time of baptism, Jesus forgives our sins by the power of the blood and adds us to His church (Acts 2:38, 47). Have you been baptized?

 

Now That I'm A Christian

 

Disciples of Jesus wear no denominational names or support denominational doctrines. You are not Baptist, Methodist, Catholic, etc. No such names or denominations existed when Jesus built His church, and you now belong to that church (Mt. 16:18; Acts 2:47). The name of "Christian" is given for you to wear, and you glorify God in that name (Acts 11:26; 4:12; 1 Pet. 4:14-15).

As a Christian, you will meet with other Christians for worship and service (Heb. 10:25; Acts 2:42; 9:26-28; Eph. 4:11-16).

Christians begin as "babes" in Christ, having been born again (Jn. 3:1-5; Rom. 6:1-7; 1 Pet. 1:22-23; 1 Pet. 2:1-2). Each grows toward being a mature Christian (Eph. 4:11-15). They no longer live in sinful life-styles as in the past (Col. 3:1-17; Gal. 5:19-24). A Christian grows by adding the attributes of grace (2 Pet. 1:2-11).

An outstanding depiction, ca. 1966/67 of ALSEP deployment/“thumper” employment. Note the squat nature of the central station. The round-topped cylindrical object to its right is the passive seismometer. I have no idea what the two low-profile square devices in its immediate vicinity are. Confirmation of the year & devices are available at the following wonderful site:

I didn’t expect the thumper to have already been under planning during this time period. Did YOU??? Along those lines, since I believe in going into the weeds…for my own edification & since it’s the primary activity being depicted:

 

“The Active Seismic Experiment apparatus is comprised of two parts, the seismic energy sources and the detection system. Two energy sources will be employed. One is a mortar device from which four explosive grenades will be launched to detonate at various distances up to one mile from the geophone detectors. The mortar package, including grenades and the explosives, will be armed and activated after about one year by earth command. The second energy source is a “thumper” device containing 20 explosive squibs which will be activated by the astronaut at specified locations along the geophone line as he returns to the ALSEP. The detection system will be a linear array of three geophones together with amplifier systems and necessary electronics.

 

The mechanical design of the Active Seismic Experiment is based on inputs from both Drs. Kovach (the Americanized version of Kovacs, it being the original Hungarian spelling) and Watkins. The design concerns two areas, the seismic energy sources and the common detection system. The thumper device is for investigation of the materials within about a 75-ft depth of the lunar surface. This device will be about 4 ft long, and stored in two sections for transportation. The upper section will contain necessary electronics for the firing mechanism, the squib barrel, and contact points. The lower section will be a hollow cylinder which will be bayonet-connected to the squib barrel. It will serve to couple the energy source to the lunar surface, and impart seismic waves to the surface materials for detection by the geophones.”

 

The above being an extract from the aforementioned document.

 

The ‘thumper’ was used on Apollos 14 & 16.

It's hard for me to get photos of Belfagan, as I'm usually part of the band when they're dancing. Well, just you try playing a sax and taking photos at the same time! Now and again, though, I leave the music to the others for a minute or two and take some pics. On this occasion, outside the Ratty Arms at Ravenglass, I caught the girls dancing Eaglesfield, a dance originally created especially for the group. It involves garlands and a lot of very rhythmic ranting. (For the edification of those who are not immersed in morris lore, the rant is a dance step commonly used in morris of the North West tradition.)

A sugar plantation; an abandoned investment property; a cattle ranch; a landscape of defiance in the face of the Army Corps of Engineers--Oak Alley has been many things in its over 200 years of history. Today it is a historic site, dedicated to preserving and interpreting each chapter of this plantation’s memory. Our mission, established by Mrs. Josephine Stewart is as follows:

 

Oak Alley Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public non-profit trust organized and operated exclusively for charitable, literary and educational purposes. Its trustees are charged with maintaining and preserving the mansion (Big House) and surrounding sixty-three (63) acre National Historic Landmark site for public exhibition as an historical monument to the times and area in which the property was built and for the instruction, education, enlightenment, information, edification and cultural benefit of the citizens of the State of Louisiana, the United States and the public generally.

 

Open to the public since 1976, our institutional values include complete respect for the National Landmark with which we have been entrusted. This not only is evident in our dedication to it’s preservation and maintenance but in our complete adherence to narrative integrity, in deference to this iconic historic site whose past includes serving as a place of enslavement even as it was celebrated for its stunning landscape.

Pequeno templo, cuja matriz inicial remonta ao ano de 1698, tendo sido posteriormente reedificado no final do século XIX. A vila de Paço de Arcos, pela sua localização, esteve desde sempre ligada às actividades piscatórias, daí que esta capela tenha sido erguida em honra do

Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes, padroeiro das gentes do mar. A devoção local ao padroeiro desta capela é provavelmente anterior à construção da capela e estará relacionada com a proteção que a enseada de Paço de Arcos ofereceria aos navegantes que ali ocorriam procurando

abrigo das tempestades no mar.

A capela é constituída por uma só nave, rematada por uma abóbada de berço animada por painel de estuque de motivos geométricos (limitado à zona correspondente ao altar-mor), apresentando também muros revestidos por rodapé azulejar de padrão setecentista. Os muros da nave ostentam ainda a presença de figurações escultóricas, sobre peanhas, de São José (Epístola) e de São Sebastião (Evangelho). Este espaço é

enriquecido por alguns elementos do período barroco, nomeadamente o altar predominantemente em talha dourada.

Na zona central encontra-se uma imagem do padroeiro da vila – Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes.

Senhor Jesus dos Navegantes Chapel

  

Small temple, whose origin goes back to 1698 being rebuilt at late nineteenth century.

For its location, Paço de Arcos has always been related to fishing activities, that is why this chapel has been devoted to Lord Jesus of Navigators, Saint Patron of seafarers. The local devotion of seafarers to this chapel Saint patron probably goes back before this chapel edification and shall be most likely connected to the shelter that Paço de Arcos cove offered to seafarers that went there looking for

shelter from the sea storms.

The chapel has a single aisle crowned by an arch barrel lightened by a geometric pattern stucco panel (confined to the high altar area) and also laying out walls covered by a seventeenth century tilled pattern outskirt. The aisle walls display also sculptural elements, upon pedestals of Saint Joseph (Epistle) and Saint Sebastian (Gospel). This space is still enhanced by some baroque elements, namely the altar predominately of gilt woodwork and at the central area with an image of this village Saint Patron - Lord Jesus of Navigators.
