關於這座聖堂About this church

聖母領報堂建於荃灣，聖堂呈圓形：「圓形的聖堂是聖母的胎，聖母的召叫也是我們的召叫。」環繞牆身的彩繪玻璃描繪基督生命的奧蹟；祭台上方的鑲嵌畫呈現復活的主與聖母及宗徒同在。The Church of the Annunciation in Tsuen Wan is built on a circular plan: “the round church is like the womb of the Blessed Mother — Mary's calling is also our calling.” Stained-glass windows around its walls trace the mysteries of Christ's life, while a great mosaic above the altar shows the Risen Lord with Mary and the apostles.

朝聖六步Six steps of pilgrimage

如何在此祈禱How to pray here

「我的殿宇，應稱為祈禱之所。」（瑪 21:13）願你走出自我去朝聖，在主內安憩。“My house shall be called a house of prayer.” (Mt 21:13) Step out of yourself on pilgrimage, and rest in the Lord.

1. 1 進入聖堂，首先跪下或坐下，閉上眼睛，祈禱：求聖神降臨。On entering the church, first kneel or sit, close your eyes, and pray: Come, Holy Spirit.
2. 2 張開眼睛，看聖言、看祭台、看聖像，讓景物進入眼簾，欣賞其意義。Open your eyes; look at the Word, the altar, the sacred images. Let the sights enter in, and contemplate their meaning.
3. 3 閉上眼睛，心裡再求聖神啟迪，全心跟隨，全心交託。Close your eyes again; ask the Holy Spirit for light, follow with your whole heart, and entrust yourself completely.
4. 4 走近每個角落，瞻仰聖像，為不同意向祈禱，請聖人代禱。Walk to each corner, gaze on the sacred images, pray for various intentions, and ask the saints to intercede.
5. 5 回到座位，心裡欽崇，全心讚美。Return to your seat; adore in your heart and praise with all your being.
6. 6 離開前可拍下富有意義的照片，作繼續祈禱之用。Before leaving, you may take a meaningful photo to carry your prayer onward.
