For a long time, I've considered the beauty of the outdoors as "church"

Absolutely ,yes.

I have in my memory bank a place in the most beautiful woods on the land I grew up on.

It was a clearing, a large clearing with the sun beaming in and it's rays showering the area like the apse of a church.

The area was filled with wild flowers especially this time of the year.

I would hold court there among nature's little animals, and her dragonflies. All would be well for me in that place. I learned years later, it was my three brothers favorite place, too. It was a solace for the soul.
