Chapter 575: It's Too Late, Start First

For two weeks the Grand Duke Joan of Arc attended the prayer days at about the same time, and with two primers, Wren was satisfied, and he did not need a third or more time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 On the one hand, it is not allowed by time, and on the other hand, the current law also has an element of show, and once it really comes to the point where there is no need to put on a show, then the law will become irregular. It takes more time to get to grips.

So Wren decided to do it on the third day of prayer.

It was the last day of prayer in February, and there were still three or four days to go before the holiday, and the city of Todtilas was noticeably more crowded in preparation for the festival. Every year, Todtilas attracts a large number of civilians from the neighborhood during the celebration day, and there are events held here, there are also float parades, and most importantly, it is lively enough.

Early in the morning, I could see a faint shadow of a light, and the pedestrians on the road had already begun to walk towards the church in groups.

The churches of Toddilas are not very large, not to mention the churches of Sunset City, and even the churches in some large cities are more spacious and ornate than the churches here. There were a lot of people who came this time, and a large number of them were civilians from the countryside outside the city, and they may have heard rumors that the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc was also religious, so they wanted to see if the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc really joined the church, and this is precisely because they are also believers.

From time to time, some of the people in the crowd looked to the end of the King's Road, and it stands to reason that the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc should have appeared. Many people stopped and waited between the King's Road and the church, wanting to see for themselves whether the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc had really begun to believe in the god of light. This is encouraging news for many Christians, who may not be able to understand the conflict and entanglement between the church and the regime, but they know that the empire is suppressing the church.

No one wants their faith to be denied, and believers need more support, and stronger support.

The Grand Duke of Joan of Arc appeared at the right time, and she may only be able to represent herself in the eyes of some people now. But the commoners don't understand, they still think that the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc can still represent the vast majority of the nobility.

It's really nice to have the support and affirmation of the nobles.

When the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc appeared outside the royal court, wearing a white robe and carrying a Bible in his hand, and stepped into the King's Avenue with one foot, the surrounding believers could not help but cheer. Grand Duke Joan of Arc smiled and waved his hand, such a scene was really just a small thing for her.

Surrounded by the crowd, the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc soon approached the church, and as she walked up the stairs to the church door in the crowd - not everyone was willing to pay for the political show, and there were also smart people, or people who were not used to such behavior, and they didn't care if you were an archduke or a nobleman. God the Father has said that in the eyes of God, all things are equal, whether it is a man, a stone, or a small grass, it is the same and similar thing to God.

At that moment, a young priest in a priest's robe smiled and shoved an apple into the eye of the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc. She paused for a moment, looked over unexpectedly, and the guards around her immediately followed. She raised her hand until the guards were offended, and watched as the priest indiscriminately gave the apples in the basket to the believers as they walked towards the church.

The apple has many meanings, and it is described in the original book: "In the kingdom of God there is a golden apple tree, on which golden apples will be born, and when you eat this apple, you will get boundless wisdom, supreme courage, and invincible strength." Countless gods coveted it, but no one dared to pick it easily, because this apple tree belonged to the queen of the gods. It was also described that "the gods of the sky fought each other together, and the reason why they fought each other was ridiculous and unstable for mortals." They are just fighting and fighting for a golden apple. Don't they know that as long as they sleep for a while, there will be enough golden apples on the branches?"

As recorded in the first book, the apple for a long time, in the description of the church, represented wisdom, courage, and strength. This is not the first time that the clergy have given the faithful apples as a good wish. Sometimes the church also holds very important events, in which the priests distribute apples and bless the people.

Grand Duke Jeanne d'Arc smiled, withdrew her gaze, and slipped the apple in her hand into her bosom, which was a good sign, at least in her opinion.

Walking to the first row of seats in the church, there was a special seat for her, and when she sat down, the young bishop in charge of the presiding cough lightly. He was used to this kind of scene, and several times a year it would be as crowded as it is today. If it weren't for the sanctity of this place that terrifies the believers, they might have climbed to the beams, the chandeliers, or even the dome.

"Seeing so many believers gathered here gives me more satisfaction than I have ever felt before. God doesn't need us to be humble to accentuate His greatness, but we need to be afraid. Considering ......," the young bishop glanced at Archduke Joan of Arc, "so I will start from the beginning, hoping that you will be considerate." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately catered to him, shouting that he could be considerate, and he was giggling. Only on such occasions will everyone feel that there is really no difference between themselves and the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc. It was also wonderful to have the new Father-in-law of Joan of Arc able to get in touch with the Bible from scratch.

"Now, then, please open the first page of the Bible......", the bishop turned the first page of the Bible, and many believers in the audience also turned the first page casually, and he waited for about half a minute, "We start with the first verse of the first chapter, and the chapter we are going to talk about today is 'I walk on the earth, and everywhere I go is the kingdom of God.'"

The boring Bible is full of fun in the mouth of the bishop, starting with Rossi, the incarnation of God the Father walking on earth, revealing the birth of the church little by little. Naturally, the old believers are happy to feel the greatness and holiness of God the Father again, and the Protestants also need to understand what faith really is through this explanation.

When the bishop explained the third verse, the church bell rang, and he realized that it was nine o'clock, and it was time for prayer.

He closed the Bible, walked to the pulpit, took the cross in his hand, and kissed it, "I praise the great and holy as you, who shed light on the earth, dispelled the night, and illuminated the way forward." I praise the great and divine as you, who bestow upon us the grace of discerning good from evil, between beauty and ugliness. I praise the great and divine as you ......", the prayer process was not long, it only lasted about ten minutes, and the process came to an end, and the time had pointed to eleven o'clock.

By this time, the day of prayer was almost over, and some people had already stood up and left in an orderly manner with the flow of people, and some had gone to the donation box to put in a small amount of change, or put some things they had brought with them on the edge of the box.

The Grand Duke of Joan of Arc also stood up, and he walked to the confessional on the left side of the church—similar to the shoemakers in another world, the confessional was not as spacious as expected, and the rooms embedded in the walls resembled two small closets. When the door is closed from the inside, it only provides enough space for one person to do so. There are three screens between the two "closets", and neither of them can see each other's appearance, but can only hear the voice and listen to the other's confession.

As the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc went in, she suddenly felt that the pocket on her waist was a little tight, and she took out an apple from her wide-mouth pocket, and then sat down.

"Priest, I am guilty!", she picked up the apple and put it in her hand, the red apple was fresh and tender, you must know that it is difficult to buy apples at this time, only the church and a few special places can collect apples. Of course, what is difficult for the average person is not a big deal for the church.

The Grand Duke of Joan of Arc looked at the delicate apples, and couldn't help but take a bite, the water was so much that it was like being locked in cells, and as the teeth tore the cells, a large amount of sweet juice exploded in his mouth, making the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc breathe a long sigh of relief.

"I'm guilty!", she reiterated after nibbling on the apple, "a lot of people say that, and I deserve to be guilty." For the sins I committed, I admit that I am guilty, but everything happens for a reason. ”

Archduke Joan of Arc said a lot of things, whether they could be said or what they couldn't say, they were known to everyone, or they were hidden in her heart.

Perhaps the most satisfying thing for the whole church is the confessional, especially when the presiding officer of the confessional has a tight mouth.

Everyone has to come into contact with some unspeakable secrets more or less in their lives, these secrets are bothering people all the time, wanting to share them, but afraid of losing something because of this, and when they can't let the secrets be known by more people, it is a kind of torment for people. But the confessional room solves all these troubles very well, those things that are hidden deep in the bottom of her heart and occasionally turn them out are not stressed at all here, and they can make her really relax, so she likes it.

It's just that today's bishop seems to have some ...... He hadn't said a word until now, and if she hadn't seen a shadow across the screen, she might have felt like she was talking to the air.

It's just that the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc didn't know that the bishop who presided over the prayer was at a loss at this time.

Neither he nor the cardinal went to the confessional, so who are the people in the confessional now?

Just as the two of them were running towards the confessional room, the flow of people who were preparing to leave in the hall surrounded them tightly, making it difficult for them to move!
