On our way home from Minnesota, we went to Sunday Mass at
Saint Paul the Apostle Church in Norwalk, Ohio. The church wasn't too far from the highway and it has lovely exteriors and interiors.

Saint Paul the Apostle Church |
The main altar of the church is flanked by statues of Mary and Joseph, a typical design well executed. I liked the ceiling too. Maybe not so much the crucifix above the altar.

Saint Joseph |
Just below Our Lady is a large baptismal font that looks about big enough for immersion.

The church's patron is modestly memorialized with a nearby statue.

The Apostle Paul |
The Stations of the Cross are quite nice and stand out.
|
Station IV--Jesus Meets His Mother |
The church has some other good works of art, including the Hail Mary in carved wood and the Creed on a cross.

This looked more impressive in real life |

The only odd bit is on the exterior, left side. A covered bit of the driveway looks like a drive-thru to me. Maybe a wedding couple can make a quick getaway through the side exit?
