A Cobblestone Chappell made of lake stone from

A beautiful cobblestone church built from stones collected by the waters of Lake Ontario in 1848.
We tripped over this amazing  Methodist church built in 1848, along North Ridge road ion the way home from our excursion to Fort Niagara today.  Built from cobblestones collected in Lake Ontario.
Beautiful Stain glass windows surround every side of the church.   Incredible to see up close!
 On our way home from an excursion with the Missionaries to Fort Niagara we found this beautiful  treasure of a Chapel along highway 41.  Had to stop and get pictures to share with everyone.  The Mason's who perfected this art of stone work did not pass along this craft, and so today is a lost art.  

More than beautiful work of art!  Couldn't let this one go unnoticed!  The pictures don't do it justice, but it will have to do.
