Feb. 22 Safari...

Hello intrepid safari seekers.

I am hoping you're up for a little architectural history. I learned the oldest churches in Roswell were all built within a few years of each other. Three of them still have parts of their original buildings intact. I thought there might be some opportunity to compare and contrast the architecture as well as the sanctuaries of these houses of worship. In the hope that you might be interested in exploring that possibility, I have made arrangements for us to tour St. Andrews Episcopal Church, First United Methodist Church, and First Presbyterian Church, all in Roswell's historic district.

We sill start at St. Andrews Church, 505 Pennsylvania, at 9:00. We've been invited to their monthly pancake breakfast and it would be gracious to attend, but not required. We'll tour the church right after eating (about 9:30). From there we will head over to the Presbyterian Church, where we will be met my Lynetta Zuber, the church secretary. Mr Armstrong, at the Methodist Church, will admit us there around 11:30.

This should be an interesting morning. If weather is good, we can explore outside as well as inside the buildings. And if you're really ambitious, you might take a walk around the historic district to see what else you might discover.

Please let me know if you are interested in this trip, or if the times need to be tweaked. We could start earlier, but the breakfast starts at 7 and ends at 10, so I thought there might be fewer people milling around if we go toward the end.  Date: February 22.  Questions? call Sue Ashby 575.208.2197
