I have a soft spot for old churches, and you did a good job here! I seek them out when I travel.
In a basilica in Philidelphia, I met a priest with a sense of humor. It has a large dome covered with sheet gold, and I was enjoying the building. He asked me if he could help me, and I told him I was enjoying the ambiance. He asked if I liked it, and I said I did. Then he asked me if I wanted buy it....
I plan to photograph the Tulsa churches. A lot of oil money was spent here building them, and some are pretty nice. Not with the History this place has, and I'd like to see it sometime. But your pictures have almost taken me there, thanks!

I asked you if you wanted to buy it? Wowww
I really like the art and architecture in them plus the history. I'm so glad you liked it! Thank you very much for your visit!
They do make a really special building! I appreciate the pictures, they took me there.
In the basilica in Montreal, they even had a museum in the basement, and escalators to gulet uphill inside from the parking lot. Kind of different for sure. But they have a small clapboard church there, that was built by the priest and his Brother in the early 1800's that I enjoyed the most! You could still feel GOD in that place, honoring those Men's dedication...it was hard to leave!
Be blessed, and keep on prepping.

It is very difficult to say goodbye to places like this, you feel very much at home.
It is a welcoming location! People came there for divine healing, and there was quite a collection of crutches, canes, and wheelchairs left there when they were no longer needed. It was impressive, and felt warming!
Wonderful place, and GOD was still there....

Yes it is, and God always welcomes those who come to him.
If it wasn't so far away, I'd visit there from time to time! There is a garden here in Tulsa, that is completely surrounded by church buildings that has his presence. I used to eat lunch there when I was in high school. There were several large trees in this garden, but it's closed off now. I'm thinking about asking them if I can go there through the building. If they allow it, I'll get pictures....

I would love to see those photos! It would be great, I hope they let it happen there!
