We came across this church when we were exploring areas of Terre Haute. I all my years of living here, I have never seen it.
We were both impressed by it.
I just hate that it pieces of the stained glass have falling out/been broken.
I have to show all these to do it justice...
I could see this as a quilting design in a triangle...
I don't know if the building is being used for anything at all or not. I sure wish someone would have the money and the time to restore it.

Tuesday's Treasures...
big and solid. hope it can be maintained.

Just look at those gorgeous windows and the leading. That main one has to be magnificent from inside. You are going to have to go back one of these days and take follow up pictures from the inside when the light is hitting the glass. What a fine find.
