Double Baptist

I drove through a town that was so small that I barely noticed it. (Sorry, tiny town.) On the north side of town I passed a church and seconds later, my brain decided that the sign out in front said “Double Baptist.” A minute or two after that, my brain also decided that I couldn’t go another day without a photo of the Double Baptist Church.

It is actually the Doole Baptist Church, and my brain obviously cannot be trusted.

Job Site

Here’s the interior of that church from yesterday. I am a bit infatuated with that diagonal wood over there on the wall, and especially like the placement of the boards, the way they just skirt the side of the window arch.

Valiant Effort

Google’s map says this building is the Apostolic Sanctuary, but when I was there the sign was empty so I’m not sure whose sanctuary it is now. But there is a renovation project underway, which was nice to see, as this is a nice little building.

Holy Water

Worship in the Time of COVID is not nearly as catchy a title as Love in the Time of Cholera.

And anyway, hand sanitizer as a narrative is really, really boring.

Church: 3/4 View

As you may recall, I am fond of looking around the backs of things, and that’s how I found this nice little propane tank hanging out behind the church.
