St. James, Kansas

Just north of Fostoria is St. James, Kansas. I'm surprised that this is the first post of this church.
Small and simple.



Originally a Methodist church.

You can find interior photos here, although it's not that impressive inside.

St. Isidore, Delaware Bend

 Just west of Defiance is the little church named St. Isidore.






The doors were locked, but I managed to take a photo through the door window. 

You can find a better interior photo here

St. Michael, The Ridge

 Interior photos of St. Michael





St. John Neopcumene



Every church seems to have an angel carrying the holy water. 

The narthex had a vaulted ceiling. You don't see that in many churches.



A really impressive interior

Cross Tipped Churches Trip: St. Francis de Sales, St. Henry

 The last church I stopped at was St. Francis de Sales. 

I was in a bit of a hurry because it was getting dark.

I am now noticing this, but the interior is very similar to St. Michael in Gibsonburg.

Cross Tipped Churches Trip: Nativity BVM

 Another church on the same road just east of St. Rose


Apologies for the blur, I was in a rush because it was getting dark.


Another cube like interior, with the side altars removed.
