GOD,
Please give  Humanity wisdom
To eliminate the Poverty in the World.
So that the rich become richer.
So that no Poverty exists.
So that no  Parent bury his Child.
So that our wonderful Planet is safe.
So that we to live with Joy, in Peace and surrounded by Love.
So that we will glorify You through our short lives, finished even before
being conceived.
So that to hear New prayers coming from every human’s heart,
Which is the same for every Human in this World, independently rich or
poor, white or colored, Abraham or Buddha’s children.
Because I believe only in Goodness..
(Amarilio's Prayer)


The last time of St. Jacob's Church restoration was in 1969. It was also given the same colour as in the 17th century.
This church is located in the heart of the Swedish capital and was founded in 1580 by King John III, but completely built up in 1643.
Its interior is dominated by the high light vaults resting on heavy massive sandstone pillars.
