January 20-22, 1999
This is a wide shot of an
Episcopalian Church
still active since its founding
in 1699.
The day began with some
light fog.
the
church was beautiful inside
some of the pews are marked
with the names of famous parishioners,
such as Thomas Jefferson,
George Washington, Patrick Henry
and others
the pulpit is raised above
the congregation,
imagine having to give the
sermon from so high!
The Bible is held by a beautiful
angelic stand
the detail is quite remarkable
notice the graves in the
floor - there were graves all throughout the isles
The Church yard is still
active as a graveyard -
to enter or exit the Church,
we had to pass through the gateway
to the graves.
Some of the graves were
right outside the window of the deceased's pew.
