| Bishop Pola Church |
- This Church was named after "Bishop Pola", the pioneer of the"SAWAH" (HOLY, People who have the ability to appear in a place and then appear in another far plave the next second) for his characteristics of being alone in the mountain and living in caves, and loneliness that he stayed in a quiet time with God that extended to 70 years that he didn't see a human's face. It was witnessed to him that he is a man that doesn't deserve the world "the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground." (Heb 11:38); And the Lord added to this church the feeling of quietness and holiness, "... In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, .." (Is 30:15)
- This place was discovered in 1986; when working with the loader over this place, a big rock felt. As a result, the ground was opened and the cave was discovered that was later prepared to be a church.
- The first Holy Mass was in 1991. Apart from the Holy Mass, this place is also used for prayer meetings and other spiritual meetings.
- In January 5, 1991. The church was on fire due to an electric mass, and because of God's care, the church and the pictures and all things were not effected at all. This shows the Godly care to his church. "... and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." (Mt 16:18)
- The Lord who prepared this place to be a church, to give us a prepared heart for him to live in, and bless His holy name. "Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you?" (1 CORINTHIANS 3:16)
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honour God with you body." (1 CORINTHIANS 6:19,20)
- "In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." (MATTHEW 5:37)
