Rick’s dad is a preacher. 30 years ago he preached in this tiny town’s Methodist church to a congregation of 5 people. I’m guessing he was the last preacher to stand at the pulpit in this church.
The name above the doors says it was founded in 1870. It survived over 100 years, but it’s still sad to see a church that has been abandoned.
This last picture is SOOC. I love how it looks black and white but really is in full color. The previous picture I simply edited in Picasa.
Have a great weekend!
that is sad, love those pics. i wonder about everything that happened there back in the day...
ReplyDeleteI love the subjects and the special remembering of your picture, great take on it.
ReplyDeleteI love these shots. You should have them framed for your father-in-law. I bet he would like them. There are some neat storyboard templates that would be cool.
ReplyDeleteAwesome subject ... I agree with Kim.
ReplyDeleteBlessings.

Love the church, and the meaning behind it! I have a fascination with churches. There are sooo many old churches in Galveston that even withstood the 1900's great storm!
