A few are open during the day. I believe that the high altar is normally in the east and the main door in the west.

So many near me are bare brick/boxy/minimalist and while some are quite effective, most are rather uninspiring in and of themselves. And yes, most are sadly locked when not in active use.

I remember when all were open as well and I suppose some still are in places, but not nearly so much as before. I pass by the Guelph signs often when traveling through Ontario. It's lovely to know these beautiful churches are there!<br /><br />I wanted to thank you for coming by the Marmelade Gypsy and sharing such a kind comment. I am keeping good thoughts for Deb's Annie.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3284434809316161095.post-27712401334908195162017-05-04T10:15:18.761-04:002017-05-04T10:15:18.761-04:00Oh, such lovely photos today!

Yes, I remember when churches weren't locked up & it's a shame that there really isn't much other option these days.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04650193963974000786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3284434809316161095.post-33694609743724774062017-05-04T08:58:31.759-04:002017-05-04T08:58:31.759-04:00What can I say?

It makes all of us sad.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510788797735066383noreply@blogger.com
