VISUAL VIEWPOINT | Interpreting signs

A shelf cloud approached Church of Saint Mary and Saint Louis (Abbey Church) in Creve Coeur on May 22. The churchs circular façade consists of three tiers of whitewashed, thin-poured concrete parabolic arches, the top one forming a bell-tower. The church was designed by Gyo Obata of Hellmuth, Obata and Kassabaum (HOK) with consultation by Italian architect and engineer Pier Luigi Nerv. Construction was completed in 1962, and the church was dedicated and blessed that year. Photo by Steve Oslica | Saint Louis Abbey/Saint Louis Priory School

You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky; why do you not know how to interpret the present time?’”
