christmas morning at all saints episcopal church


i ventured out on christmas morning and visited all saints for their christmas service. the church was beautifully decked out in its christmas best. it was a church experience that was pretty different than pasadena mennonite church (where i normally attend), but i really enjoyed it. i spent the rest of my day with my wife until she left for work :( and then just relaxed and enjoyed the rest of the day.

how did you spend your holiday?

That a wonderful photo of a heavenly Episcopal "cathedral" all decorated for Christmas! We slept in, relaxed and then had a big Christmas dinner at 1 PM with my wife's family. I don't know why we didn't get outside to play and sled in the snow?? Merry Christmas, Ben!

Nice upper deck shot, bw!
I think all faiths should visit a denomination that differs in some way from our own. If we can visit different restaurants to eat, why not visit with the faithful in other churches...

Denominations should not be so strong that it divides us on days of worship.

What a beautiful church! I was looking at the backs of heads to see if I recognized anyone (I know a lot of people who go to All Saints), but it looks like the folks I know skipped out... Great balcony shot, Ben.

We took a long walk and took pictures. It was a lovely day for it.
