You did a great job with this tribute to your awesome church. I enjoyed reading your well written poem. I like the smooth flow, the great end rhymes, and the true message. Your details brought this church to life.
Respectfully, Jan

Amen! And God has never been impressed by numbers just as He showed Gideon that He can do more with 300 committed souls than with many thousands of half-hearted ones. Also, He's always challenging us so perhaps there will be new ways that younger folks are meeting Jesus that don't require a building.
Thank you for your beautiful poem about your thoughtful reflection about your hometown church.

Excellent

Simply beautiful, Janet.
You touch on many elements of change and loss these days, coupled with faith.
Such solemnity to return to the churches of our childhood...remembering former days...cherishing the memories of our loved ones...
Your closing stanza is powerful.

Thankyou for sharing!
