Description
Winner of the Fine Art America November 2014 Country Church and Meeting House Contest
St. Jacobs Church, outside of Republic, Ohio, is where I met my wife, This building is a statement of faith for those who have worshiped there. Churches like this one dot the Ohio landscape. Judy, and I met there on our first date...... the day they landed on the moon in 1969. 45 years later it hasn't changed. It is a stable place, where God is present. We were married there, sang in the choir there, and ate many country suppers there. I have many friends who have been buried in this quiet place. I will join them one day. For now, I will remember the feeling of being inside, listening to the loud praising in song, sometimes off key, but clearly from the heart.
