looked at the pic, I’ll bet everyone talks in there before mass.
are those colored shards of glass or the real stained glass windows?

Colored thick shards with “chipped” edges in what is supposed to look like lead frames. Very “cold” looking.

Inside is all modernistic woodwork in minimalist fashion.

If you look at the roof line, it is supposed to look like a “seashell” next to the lake.

We have a much more traditional church on the other end of town that is a thing of beauty with original stained glass windows and traditional woodwork and pews. Unfortunately its quite small. It’s used for a few masses and usually weddings because of its size and quaintness. Our Lady of the Lake.

The larger church, St. James the Apostle is next to the Catholic grade school and was built to handle the huge increase in population that came in the 50’s and 60’s.
