St. Peter's is a solid little church and has weathered the years well, will be so interesting to see inside.

The Christian symbol of the sculpted anchor winding around the cross on that headstone is very impressive. I hope you can get to see inside the church some day.Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8962119626860820391.post-52649202883762766142016-07-18T01:16:15.217+01:002016-07-18T01:16:15.217+01:00Bill, by far my favorite is the stone with the anc...Bill, by far my favorite is the stone with the anchor.
