Church Windows

Today I am sharing pictures of Church Windows I have captured during my ramblings.

Some of the churches are old, and some are not so old; some are plain and simple little country churches, and some are, literally, architectural works of art — but regardless of their structural appearance, I think their stories will forever be reflected in their windows.

And these windows in an old church in the Mississippi Delta have long been "gone with the wind" ...

But I'm sure when that little church was new, on any given Sunday, those windows were flung wide open and the strains of all six verses of "Just As I Am," could be heard drifting across the cotton fields ... and perhaps, if you ventured close enough, even now you could hear the echos of long ago sermons and prayers coming from within.
