People experience their spirituality in diverse and abundant places. Awe, wonder and the feeling of connectedness can crop up when we least expect it.
To highlight that diversity and honor the many ways people experience spirituality, we asked The Huffington Post newsroom to share photos and stories of their personal sacred places. We invite you to email us at religion@huffingtonpost.com to share your own photos and anecdotes of places where you have felt deeply and inexplicably connected to the divine.
