Swept Away
This was a nice sight: a broom, an industrial-size dustpan, and one footprint.

without faith (a diptych)
I’d been by this abandoned church before, and even stopped once. For reasons that I don’t comprehend, I decided to pull off the road the other day and have another look at it. The door was open so I had a look inside – and this diptych shows a couple of the things that caught my attention.

Something else I located inside the same church from yesterday, in the passageway from the kitchen to the sanctuary. I guess preachers need to check their look before the preaching commences.

Tabled
A country church with an unlocked door: it was a dream come true. And finding this wonderful table in the back room was like an extra reward for my efforts.

we would see Jesus
A very nice woman in Alanreed, Texas, got the church keys from her mom and gave me a tour around the inside of the church. She showed me the whole place – the door where a homeless person broke in and the room where they lived for a while, some tiny Sunday school classrooms, the old church sign, and some very scary-looking stairs to the baptistry. This open hymnal was the best of everything she showed me.
