St. John the Evangelist, Delphos

 I was on my way to Van Wert one Sunday morning and stopped in the town of Delphos to attend Mass at St. John the Evangelist. I also couldn't help but take tons of photos. Specifically the statues because St. Johns has a ton of them. 

In this image alone, there are a total of 13 statues! Statues aside, the overall interior is phenomenal. However, one thing I noticed was how empty the church was. Not even the baldachins help to stop this problem. On a different note, The vaulting is very nice and the stained glass windows are very beautiful. 

The first of many statues is St. Jude Thaddeus. My camera wasn't focusing for some reason on this one.

 

The next statue is of St. James the Great. You can see the stained glass windows I was talking about with the Crucifixion on the left and the Resurrection. 

St. John the Evangelist, the eponymous saint. 

St. Philip the Apostle along with the Nativity of the Lord on his right. 

St. Simon the Zealot on the right and St. Matthew on the left. Notice that the St. Matthew statue has his own wall recess. 

St. Andrew on the left and St. Thomas on the right. Just like St. Matthew, St. Thomas has a wall recess. 

St. Bartholomew along with the Good Shepherd stained glass on his left. 

St. Peter.

St. James the Less. On his left is the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and on his right is the Finding of Jesus in the Temple. 

St. Paul the Apostle. Reminds me of a church that looks just like St. Johns

The Blessed Virgin Mary. This image shows how empty the church is. That baldachin just looks weird without a roof. 

The last image on the main floor is of St. Joseph. Here, the tried to solve their space problem by putting a grand piano in the space. Instead, it interrupts my photo. 

The best view of a church is always in the balcony. A very unique (and definitely not the original) ambo. 

In the balcony I found 2 more statues. This one is of St. Anthony 

and this one is of St. Ann. 

One of the most unique things about this church is the organ. It's not just one main facade, but two, with one on either side of the balcony. 

Here is a closer view of the other facade.
