What an amazing event venue! I attended the press launch of Belfast Fashion Week and initially when…read moreI found out where it was going to be hosted I was surprised. I thought Belfast's fashionistas would have chosen a more opulent venue but once I entered the Life Church i was blown away by what was on offer. Firstly the location is amazing, about a five minute walk from GV Street Station and opposite a car park it couldn't have been any more accessible if it tried. To get into life church you must first walk under an arch, today the arch was beautifully decorated with fairly lights creating a lovely ambiance on entry. Once inside the venue was much more spacious than I expected although the low roof and exposed beams make it a more intimate feeling. Today we were watching a presentation and the sound carried perfectly. I believe that Fashion week had decorated the venue, and they did a great job. This is somewhere I had previously not been but I am very impressed by what I have seen.

Inside this little church is pretty much typical of many around the city - the usual religious iconography, wooden bench seating and marble fittings. Admittedly not as impressive as the huge St Annes Cathedral on down the road a bit but still.

St Brigid's Catholic Church is situated on Derryvolgie Avenue between the prestigious Malone and…read moreLisburn Roads. It is a beautiful church which has been recently renovated to a very high standard both inside and out. The Church receives quite a few parishioners for Sunday service as well as attracting university students in the area. The stained-glass windows are striking and project a beautiful light within the church, adding to its serene atmosphere. If you want to light candles, the Church has two candle stands with accompanying prayers for varying interests and needs, which is a lovely thought. The odd time a parishioner will leave a specific prayer for others as this may have helped them in a particular time of need. The mass times slot into every families lifestyle as they range from a Saturday night vigil right through to the last mass at 1pm on Sunday afternoon. Therefore, leaving no excuse for missing your weekly time slot for divine intervention and inspiration.
