This one is still standing proudly on the hill and has a nice-sized faithful congregation.
The picture has been tweaked a bit in Photoshop, but it is a picture I took during a parade in the tiny town.
It’s in a tiny little town that is just a speck on the map…what you would call a burg. Nice people and a pretty good attendance.

I agree. I like the older buildings better too. There are some around here that are over 100 years old. The church I attended as a child was built around 1900.

Good morning Jan! I know what you mean. So different from modern day buildings. (The hard unpadded benches kept you awake! lol)

what a beautiful church. It’s sad to me that so many don’t want to attend little country churches anymore. I love my little country church 🙂

Thank you Jean. I have gone to church most of my life. I taught a teen Sunday school class for 20 years. I love the little churches too and agree that it’s sad so many of them are now closed.
