Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory in Historic Petersburg

The most beautiful church exterior my eyes have ever beheld: Trinity United Methodist Church on the 100 block of South Sycamore in Downtown Petersburg, Virginia.  While beautiful on a sunny day, the large gray and sandstone colored blocks really pop on an overcast day because the unique individual color of each block is more distinguishable to the passer by, via the uniform ultra violet rays filtered through the clouds.  I have no idea what the interior looks like, but may visit this place one Sunday soon.  I'll keep you posted.  Also, research is ongoing on  Byrne St. Baptist Church (currently active as Second Baptist Church), from 1866 to 1876.  An update is forthcoming on that as well.
