I took this picture in the pouring rain yesterday so it's dark. Opequon is a village in Frederick County, Virginia, and shares its Native American name with nearby Opequon Creek, which flows 64 miles to the Potomac River.
This church was built in 1939, replacing an earlier church which stood on this site. The little town around it dates to about 1736.
...a church that I'd expect to find in the south, it's lovely.

To be the "second" of a named church in a small town speaks of differences in some dogma, rather than a need for another church to serve the large population...it does make me wonder!
ReplyDeleteYes, it was a different denomination than the earlier church.
DeleteIt reminds me of some churches I've seen here.
ReplyDeletePretty church and steeple.
