Middle Creek Church
AppleJack, Mother and I took a walk down memory lane yesterday. We took a trip to places of importance to Mother during her growing up years. Many members of her/my family were members of this church: Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Nieces, Nephews, Cousins. Grandmother Rebecca faithfully walked to this church, my parents met at this church. If you are a visitor to the Great Smokey Mountains National Park you might recognize it. The church is a very photographed and painted piece of Sevier County history.
Country churches almost always have cemeteries. This is the burial place of my Grandparents Luther and Rebecca and in the back my Uncle and Aunt. There are many more members of my family buried in this cemetery.
This is the barn (still standing) on Grandfather Luther's farm. I made many trips to the barn with Grandmother Rebecca.
They don't build them like they use to! This barn is nearing a 100 years old. Hope I look as good as it does when I am her age.
This is the sanctuary of our church, the choir is singing the Hallelujah chorus and it was beautiful.
Sweet, sweet Easter memories 2016.
