Sacred Heart at Egremont
Sacred Heart Catholic Church is in the hamlet of Egremont, Alberta.
The steeple is not only topped by a wrought iron cross but each corner at the base of the steeple has a decorative pinnacle also bearing a small cross.
The church was built in 1926 and the exterior appears to be mostly original to that date.
There is a cemetery on the grounds behind the church but the gates were locked at the time of my visit.

Michael
A young boy's headstone at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Cemetery near Wishart, Saskatchewan. He looks all dressed up for Sunday School in the ceramic photo.
I have to admit this reminded me of how my brothers and I dressed for Sunday School back in the 1960's...white shirt, black bow tie and a smile.
