Two hearts

religious tiles on the wall of a house
It is not unusual to find religious tiles on the walls of houses in Manila representing the particular devotion of the family living within. This tile shows a devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

A wonderful posting for Sacred Sunday, Hilda!
I wonder where I could find a "Lutheran tile" to hand outside our front door....

This is another subject that could make a nice series... there are countless tiles like this outside Manila homes. Do you have a set, Hilda?

It looks to have been there a long time. How pretty!
