[b]There are a lot of monuments in Homs which is a holly place and it is full of churches and holly places that we can be proud of such as [/b][/size][b][size=21][color:8cef=#ff0000]:OM AL-Zennar church,AL-Arbaeen Shaheed,Saint[/color][/size] [size=21][color:8cef=#ff0000]Elian and ....etc[/color][/size][size=21].Saint Elian is located in AL-Wharshi where he lived.It is very old and built out of large stones from the outside.In the backyard of the church it is made as a cematry in the west side.However,there are a lot of things that we can visit such as:the tomb of Saint Elian which heals the faithful sick people .At that time they started to restore the tomb and peal all the paintings while they where by the tomb they revealed [/size][size=21][color:8cef=#ff00ff](Frisque pictures) [/color][/size][size=21]of[/size][size=21][color:8cef=#ff0000] Jesus Christ and Vergin Mary[/color][/size][size=21].After that they brought an archaeological expert to figure out what are these paintings,and when they knew that these paintings are very ancient .The bishop continued designing all the church with [/size][size=21][color:8cef=#ff00ff](Frisque paintings) [/color][/size][/b][size=21][b]from the inside and outside because it wasnot discovered and there werenot any paintings like this one.Because it is very holly ,people around the world come and visit this unique church to get blessing from it and for sure [/b]
