The little church on the corner

From Oklahoma-

When you walk through the ancient red doors of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Woodward, you sense a presence.

Perhaps it is the echo of 120 years of history in this, the oldest church still in use in Northwest Oklahoma and the panhandle.

Or just maybe, it is the energy, still swirling, from the hundreds of weddings, baptisms, christenings, candlelight services on Christmas Eve and early morning Easters, which took place each year since the little church was built in 1893 on its original location at 701 Main Street.

You could be sensing the spirit it took to plan and move the sturdy little Late Gothic Revival style structure, built within months after the land run.
