St. Mary parish in Muncie, Indiana. This is an old image of the exterior, the roof has a great green patina now. This must be right after completion of the exterior in the 60's. Here is where I call 'home'. If I can get some pictures of the interior I'll try to post them. It's really neat architecture. You know that "noble simplicity" that gets promoted by those who like boring, horizontal, semi-circle, drywall & carpet churches? This is what I think they mean, even if they don't know it. Notice the huge statue of Mary, Mother of God. It's hard to tell but under the arch between the front doors there is a Crucifix. Ahh, they don't build them like that any more.
