The chapel used to contain some of the most sacred Christian relics in Asia, including the remains of 26 foreign and Japanese Catholic priests who were crucified in Nagasaki in 1597, as well as those of some of the Japanese Christians who were killed during the Shimabara Rebellion in 1637.

Among them was a bone from the arm of St. Francis Xavier, who died in 1552 on Sanchuan Island, 50 miles (80 km) from Macau, before it was transferred to Saint Joseph's Seminary and the Sacred Art Museum.

“You were tired out by the length of your road, yet you did not say, ' It is hopeless.' You found renewed strength, therefore you did not faint."

ROAD TRIP
Dandy

his first road trip

...So how about we escape this place,
get out, get on, get gone
and bid goodbye, so long, to this life we're caught up in.

Lets go, come run away with me,
this sadness we'll defy.
We'll be content from here on out,
no more temporary highs.

So how about we drive away
and block the rear-view mirror.
Gas pedal to the floor board
you'd soon be thinking clearer.

Dankey enjoying the ride

Come with me in the world for once
we'll dodge the tears of pain.
Strange looks may be shot our way
but it's the first time you'll feel sane.
It doesn't matter where we go
as long as we're away from here.
Sit back, relax, let go of the wheel
and for once, just let fate steer.

Run down the middle of the street
and cross that yellow line.
Free to do what we feel is right,
the devil's offer we'll decline.

So take this roadtrip with me,
forget what they all said.
The sign is right in front of you and it reads
"New Life Ahead ----->"

a worthy road trip
