Come to Italy with Stefania on one of the most amazing tours through
the Bible, in Italy!
The BASILICA JULIA in the Roman Forum was begun by JULIUS CAESAR as DICTOR
& completed by Augustus (first century BC) The BASILICA of CONSTANTINE,
constructed in the early 4th century AD, at the south end of the Roman
Forum, served as the architectural moded for the Grand Central Station in
New York.
And, the BASILICA of ST. PAUL beyond the WALLS (of the city of Rome) & the interior
of the BASILICA Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome, (one of Stefania's favorite churches)
both 5th century AD, mark the transition from the traditional Roman function of a basilica
as a civic center for commerce, finance and legal tribunals to the worship of GOD
known as the Catholic Churches!
They are the most beautiful churches in the world!
