inSPIREd Sunday




St. John’s Anglican Church is a picturesque structure built in the Carpenter Gothic style. It is a 19th century wooden building designed in a style was based on the architecture the great Gothic cathedrals of Europe. It is meant to remind you of Westminster Abbey or Canterbury Cathedral. 
Unfortunately it is only open on Sundays from Easter to Christmas. Therefore I couldn't see the famous murals that William de Garthe created for the church.
