Mel Gibson is in the process of building a huge 9,000 square foot chapel on his property in Agoura Hills, Calif., and his concubine Oksana is reportedly taking classes to learn the teachings of his ultra-conservative Catholic sect:
“This is Mel’s dream church and the center of his world,” an insider told the Enquirer. “He’s a devout traditionalist Catholic and views the chapel as his own house of worship where he can pray privately with family and friends.”
Oksana – who gave birth to Mel’s eighth child, daughter Lucia, on Oct. 30 – is taking catechism classes at the church, according to the insider.
“It’s important to Mel that he and Oksana are of the same faith,” the source added. “She’s learning the doctrines and traditions of his conservative sect.”
Gibson financed the chapel’s construction, and Lucia will soon be baptized there, said the insider.
The chapel’s crowning glory is the huge mural behind the altar.
“Mel handpicked an artist to paint a modern interpretation of the ascension of Christ,” said the insider. “He’s also commissioned someone to cast a bell for the church tower. Mel says he is more proud of his church than any of his other achievements.”
Do you suppose “thou shalt not turn your back on 29 years of marriage” is one of the teachings? Probably not.
