Description
This color photograph features the St. Joseph Catholic Church sanctuary. It is centered on the nave, showing rows of pews on both sides of the aisle. Two fonts of holy water stand on either side of the aisle behind the pews. Four Stations of the Cross are visible on the left wall, and five are visible on the right. Nine lit cylindrical pendant lights and six ceiling fans hang in straight rows. In the apse, the altar has candles and a crucifix, with a painting above on the wall of St. Joseph holding baby Jesus. In front of the left pews stands a statue of Mary, and in front of the right pews is a statue of Jesus. Near the altar is a banner reading, “Open wide the doors to Christ.”
