I LIKE IT! I LIKE !

 Especially the rectangular altar!

I wonder if the Gathering Song was “On Jordan’s Bank”?

Nice. At least it can be approached from both sides.

"On Friday, the consecration of the vast “Church of the Baptism” - on the very spot where Jesus Christ was baptized by his cousin, St. John the Baptist in the Jordan River - was an event of significant diplomatic symbolism in relations with the Hashemite kingdom."

I like it too - very open and airy with lots of natural light. It has a special baptismal section so folks can celebrate that sacrament in the Jordan River.
