Finding St. Albert the Great Church in Berlin
“We’ll be there just in time for the Mass,” bro-in-law assured cutie sis and I while tinkering with the settings of his GPS mobile phone. We were still in Prague when he said it, but the device already estimated the number of hours it would take to get there based on the total distance to be traveled and the maximum speed limit for the routes. Our destination? St. Albert the Great Catholic Church (St. Albertus Magnus Kirche) in Berlin.
While it was not the first time for bro-in-law and sis to be in Berlin, it was our first to attend the Sunday Mass in that church. Thankfully, the GPS phone assisted bro-in-law along the way and after about three hours on the road, we were just happy to hear it said, “You have reached your destination.” True enough, we stepped into the church just as the choir sang the entrance hymn.
Here are some photos of the church’s interior:

Yeah, the church has a simple contemporary design and the bricks are arranged (in different colors) to make a nice pattern for the walls.
I’ll check out your meme later… thanks for dropping by!
