First English Lutheran Church, Old South End
That window's perfect. I just hope the current tenants appreciate it. Not sure, though, since there's a for sale sign in front of it. Thanks to Shari for the scanned pictures.

I attended First English for awhile because my best friend's husband was the organist. Sadly, he passed away at a very young age. The congregation was struggling before that happened, but after he died, and his wife left First English, the church went down the tubes. It breaks my heart. It's such a beautiful church.
"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”

At least it's not sitting empty. The location's good and there's a big parking lot, so that should help.
