Catholic Architecture and History of Toledo, Ohio: St. Michael, Findlay

Thursday, December 27, 2007

I apologize for the lighting, but it gives you an idea of the sanctuary area in the new St. Michael Church. The crucifix, by the way, is life-sized.

Jeffrey Smith said...: Not bad, at all. Are the altar and ambo new, or reused from somewhere else? Do the arches at the sides lead somewhere or are they meant to be side chapels.; December 28, 2007 6:40:00 AM EST
Kyle Gase said...: Everything's new as far as I know.

The arches lead back somewhere.; December 28, 2007 9:49:00 AM EST
ShariYS said...: Nice to see a new church using a crucifix, rather than a resurrifix!; December 28, 2007 6:15:00 PM EST
Kyle Gase said...: Resurrifixes are going by the wayside quickly, from what I've noticed. It's more of a 70's thing in my opinion.; December 28, 2007 9:56:00 PM EST
Jeffrey Smith said...: Like the liesure suit, polyester disco shirts, and pet rocks.
The best of the resurrifixes could be used as altarpieces, if and only if they have a real crucifix at the altar.; December 29, 2007 7:06:00 AM EST
