I've been reading back and enjoyed your posts on the Laurier House. I visited that house years ago when my brother in law was posted to Ottawa. Such a beautiful house with lots of wood trim, and you're right about all the interesting mementos within. I love how the house has been preserved.<br />Wendy<br />PS great header photo!September Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-2420285949417023102016-12-14T19:42:18.621-05:002016-12-14T19:42:18.621-05:00I love looking at old church buildings.I love looking at old church buildings.Mari Collierhttp://www.maricollier.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-75271834778583566692016-12-14T19:17:02.915-05:002016-12-14T19:17:02.915-05:00The sight of all that snow gave me the chills.

I'll keep it in mind for some point down the line.<br /><br />@Janis: I was surprised to see it, but I suspect it's a nod towards First Nations people, perhaps some of the congregants. The churches and our First Nations people have not always had a good history, and some churches do seek to make up for that.<br /><br />@Marleen: I'm familiar with them.<br /><br />@Francisco: thank you!<br /><br />@Lowell: I guess it depends on the church denomination, but you see less of fundamentalism here, which is a good thing. <br /><br />@Sharon: yes- the first church I photographed after a snowfall, while the other pair were on a day after we'd lost most of the snow from that system, but the snow has been quite replenished since then.<br /><br />@Beth: gloomy conditions seem to happen here.<br /><br />@Red: in this case, differences of architectural style.
