Mottled
That mottled sunlight looks pretty nice, all serene and stuff. But I was standing right in front of a formidable trap that was in use to catch feral hogs. Those hogs are gigantic and extremely destructive – it fact the earth all around this building was sort of plowed up by their foraging.
From the evidence – a single shell casing on the ground near the trap – I think the population was recently reduced by one, anyway.

Circle, with square
And so the church exploration continues, this time looking at the light through some lovely geometric stained glass windows.
(Sorry for the brief posts the past few days. Turns out that getting a flu shot would have been a grand idea. If you get my drift. But I am – perhaps – on the mend and shortly will return to the usual long-winded posts. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.)

Overflow Conditions
Ah…the mundane! How nice to find the place where the folding chairs are queued up in case there’s an overflow crowd.

In the spotlight
Most of these churches don’t allow access to the balcony, but this one did. So of course, I climbed right up those stairs. There were four rows of pews, running the length of the church, and so close together it was almost impossible to pass through them. I have no idea how it works when there are worshipers in them.
But anyway, it was more than worth the effort because that’s how I got to see the sunlight hitting the lectern.

15 old dudes
These sixteen portraits flank the doors in the church hall, illustrating all the pastors since the founding. There are fifteen men in a row, and then, at last! A woman!
