There is a story that goes with this image. I was photographing this old church when a man approchad me and told me this story. Come to find out the man ownes the property. He told me that several years back someone had taken all the stained glass windows out in broad daylight and departed with them. All the windows were stained glass. They also took the bell with them when they left the scene. The church had been abandoned years prior to the theft. If you have photo's of old churches abandoned or in use, please feel free to post them.

That is a great shot of a beautiful church. It's a shame that people don't respect other peoples property and especially a church. Thanks for sharing.

The thief probably went to church the following Sunday and thanked the lord he didn't get caught stealing the windows.
