Gone is the onion dome...

Well, to-day is Pentecost Sunday in the West. The color for the day is red in the West. This is now a Pentecostal church with a new name.  It was recently Faith Tabernacle. A photographer, Glenn P., recently posted a foto, and wrote the paint still smelled fresh. It was a very sunny morning, Glenn's foto is more fire engine red, mine is tending to candy apple.

I have ridden by this church, it is visible from Superior. It is across the old St. George Lithuanian church. Usually i paid no attention, but one day i was intrigued by the double ogee arch. It was neat, but seemingly out of place. So i used the camera. One can notice that the paint scheme reversed some red for white, and versa vice.

There were bells then...  http://www.st-sergius.org/history.html

Russian Orthodox refugees built their new church there in 1951-2, St. Sergius of Radonezh. Here are two fotos from that time. The neighbourhood became unsafe, and in 1977 a new St. Sergius came to Parma, on top of Broadview hill. On the bottom of the hill was St. Sava Serbian Orthodox, which in 1965 had also moved from Cleveland's east side. Parma has become home to several Orthodox, and Eastern rite churches, and Eastern European Protestant churches.

and a mosaic, and an onion dome, and an Orthodox cross.

The altar would have been behind where the wall is painted yellow. St. George's is in the distance.
