‘Een kwartier voor God’ ( a quarter of an hour for God) is written on the sign outside on the very busy ‘Kalverstraat’ in Amsterdam. If you’re not careful you can easily miss it since it’s entrance is not one you would easily notice. A hidden church and indeed an oasis of peace with people who visit services there and some tourists passing by.... its much bigger inside than you would expect and actually crazy this rather big church is hidden so well... a perfect place to light a candle and sit quiet and respectfully to have some profound thoughts..... the nick name of this church is the parrot..... and you will see it inside... you will also find information about its history which is very interesting. No need to say to be respectful, quiet, and to take off that fancy hat...out of respect... I live a stones throw away and come here often. Not because I am a very religious person.... not at all..... but it is so beautifully calm...serene and it is for me the best place in town to pay my respect to the people who are sorely missed .....

On our guided tour on Tuesday morning 30/04/19, we visited the 'hidden church' - The Begijnhof Chapel, dedicated to Saint John and Saint Ursula, is a Roman Catholic chapel run by the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament, in the St Nicholas Parish of Amsterdam. It is located in a former schuilkerk in the Begijnhof across from its original location, the English Reformed Church, Amsterdam. What a delight to find this beautiful chapel, with stained glass windows and fine art works. A little off the beaten track but well worth a look.
