The Church in ST Elmo

The original church burn the ground in 2002. I has been restored to it's original condition. The church served as the town hall and Jail!
The building contains lots of photos and historical posters about the town's history.

I am straining to imagine a Sunday sermon while someone is in a cell off to the side of the room

I had hoped to have gotten to St Elmo this past summer, but never did. Hopefully next year.

A very nice capture of the church Larry.

Nice imagination Alan, however I think the jail was in a room somewhat behind the church alter! Thanks for your comments appreciated as always!

Hi Jim I had not been to St Elmo for over 50 years and it was worth the trip. A lot has changed since then and some part remained almost the same. I guess I won't wait another 50 years before I go back up there

Thanks for the nice comment on the image, appreciated!
