This is Saint Elizabeth's Roman Catholic Church near Parkerview, Saskatchewan.
It was abandoned long ago and is now surrounded by native aspen trees.
A diamond-shaped window on the back wall of the church.
From this angle the bell tower looks upright...
...from this angle, not so much.
Someone still maintains the small cemetery east of the church.
The church bell has been mounted in a small bell tower beside the steel cross church marker.
The marker includes a convex glass disc with the name of the church.
In better days it must have been a pleasing sight painted creamy yellow with green trim.

Nice find.
ReplyDeleteThanks BW. I had my fingers crossed that it was still standing.
DeleteI wonder if it's an individual who maintains the cemetery or the municipality?
ReplyDeleteCemeteries are often maintained by someone with a connection to the church.
