I’m running out of pictures of churches I can place – before I was blogging, I just took pictures without paying attention to names and denominations, so I’m turning to you, trusted reader, to help me out! A few years ago I was driving home from Twillingate, somewhere on Route 340 I guess, and had to stop to get pictures of this eerie but still beautiful abandoned church. So locals, or those who just love it up there, help me out! Do you have any idea the name of this church or its history? I’d love to know!
And if you need help placing it, this is it’s setting. What a beautiful spot!
Church Day: Twillingate’s St. Peter’s Anglican Church
Newfoundland is a road-trippers’ paradise, with countless little towns dotting our bays, all with their own unique history and beautiful landscapes, and, most often, their own churches. And since I have been lucky enough to have visited virtually every corner of this island throughout my life, I thought a Sunday series of church photos showcasing different communities might be interesting (and, make for a light blogging day on the Sabbath for me!).
So I’m starting with St. Peter’s Anglican Church in Twillingate. And nearby, here are some graveyard shots that I think are an excellent example of how Newfoundlanders have quite literally carved our lives into the rocky cliffs. Stunning!
