This gothic church in St. Bernard, Nova Scotia is for sale to be converted to a home and it is magnificent for $250K. 8000 blocks of granite were brought from the train by bison, for it’s construction. Building was started in 1910 and wasn’t finished until 1942. Take a look at the possibilities.

The floor is in good shape, so you wouldn’t have to change it. Plus, I would imagine that the furniture would convey and there’s a confessional with is a cool piece. The statues, however, won’t remain.

It looks as if someone put the cabinetry place for a kitchen. Beautiful.

But look at this gothic architecture.

All of the wood is staying, and someone who can build furniture could do a lot with that. Look at the intricate spiral behind the altar.

So, these are statues they’re taking. I would love to have them.

Can you imagine after the pews are removed?

I know it’s would be a lot to convert, but look at this ceiling.

And, the pipe organ.

There’s a huge basement.

Is the foundation collapsing?

It’s also on beautiful property.

Short DPXDC Prompts #1028

Martha Kent participates and donates to her local church bake sale. She bid on a few things expecting someone to bid more than her, but managed to be the highest bidder on a very strange loaf of pumpernickel bread. Later at home, she cuts a few slices to serve with supper, when she notices something is off about the bread. There are specks of green inside the bread. Usually she’d assume the specks as some odd type of mold, but these green specks are glowing. This looks like something within her son’s purview. She makes sure to bring it up in her next weekly call with Clark.

murderbot manages to be the Absolute Unit of imposter syndrome, which is funny in the most horrible way from its perspective, because it deliberately does not want to be perceived as a person, even though that's completely what it is. it's a grumpy, autistic, tv show-binging person.

#it's me if i was freed from the constraints of a human bowel system #but more competent actually #given that my life experience is in sales beauty services and church work for a faith i no longer partake in #the murderbot diaries #that being said i would rather be art.

Making sense of it

(for someone who’s struggling to make sense of it all)

Why?

It’s the classic question of a three-year old. But it doesn’t stop there. Why is something we never stop asking.

There’s something about us that just wants to make sense of things. To know how they work and what they mean. To have it all figured out.

Sometimes we do a decent job of making sense of things – after the fact. But even that’s not 100%.

One of the hardest things you and I will ever do is make sense of things, while we’re in the middle of them.

And it seems like the more difficult, the more uncertain we are about things the stronger our desire to make sense of it becomes.

It’s almost like a downward spiral, one that keeps accelerating into itself as it goes. Until we’re more and more anxious, more and more upset. And literally desperate to understand.

The disciples that Jesus came to in today’s Gospel? That’s exactly where they were.

Whether it’s the disciples back then or us now, left to ourselves, we’re just going to keep making ourselves more anxious, more upset, more distracted. Unless we stop and let God step in, to break the spiral.

Which is why St. Francis de Sales’ classic advice couldn’t be more timely. Or more needful.

“The same everlasting Father who cares for you today will care for you tomorrow and every day.

Either he will shield you from suffering or give you unfailing strength to bear it.

Be at peace then and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginings.”

Song of the Day: March 27

"Long Time Gone" by The Chicks

#song of the day #I'm still thinking about the Country Songs About Country Songs #this is actually a cover too though I never hear the original around anywhere #(it's by Darrell Scott who is also the originator for 'You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive'#turns out he's got a bunch of songs that got picked up and made somewhat more popular in the hands of other folks. an interesting legacy)#the best lines of this song to sing are also the bits About Country Music--well the whole song's about chasing the love of it #but this bit is bemoaning the kids these days you know. country music isn't what it used to be. why back in my day etc etc #it's so so so much fun to sing too because you get to exaggerate your 'I think's until they rhyme with 'Hank'. excellent work #'we listen to the radio to hear what's cookin / but the music ain't got no soul #now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard / they got money but they don't have Cash #they got Junior but they don't have Hank / I think I think I think / the rest is a long time gone'#it's fascinating to me to think about these songs in (saying 'historical' here is giving me psychic damage but) historical context #because the Darrell Scott original for Long Time Gone came out in 2000 and The Chicks released their version in 2002 #so they were talking about the trend towards American jingoism in country music of the time #versus like Waylon Jennings in 1975 'Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way'#(I typed that and /then/ went back and looked up the release date and I'm so proud I got it right)#already bemoaning the state of country music in the 70s versus good old classic country like Hank Williams Senior sang #(Hank Jr covered Waylon's song in 1981. like yes it's a tribute to his father but also Hank Jr was a big push towards outlaw country #and has a few pretty famous songs himself about not singing like his daddy did. it just seems a strange choice to me)#and then Eric Church put out 'Lotta Boot Left to Fill' in 2009 calling out the shallowness of the country music scene of the time #(talking some only-thinly-veiled shit about a few of his peers in the process)#and then he released 'Stick That In Your Country Song' in 2021 and that /definitely/ put some backs up #that one's a less directed but more direct call-out if that makes any sense #no lines that are direct references to other artists' songs but stronger sentiments overall #not just general 'y'all are getting shallow prioritizing good times and high sales over genuine heart and integrity of craft'#but some straight up 'you have forgotten the face of your father' shit towards country artists and fans alike. the whole industry #a very good righteous-anger song

Here’s a bargain if you love church conversions. This former 1871 Baptist church is due to go up for auction a guide price of £25,000 / $31,000, in the rural village Bucknell, UK. It’s a great conversion opportunity, but there are some stipulations.

It has two rooms (a chapel and back room) that make up 1,027 square feet of indoor space.

We believe there is a Baptistry Bath beneath the floorboards in front of the pulpit, though we were unable to investigate further as the floorboards are screwed down,’ reads the Rightmove listing.

It doesn’t have water, electricity or sewage drainage.

The new owner will be required to provide access to the cemetery ‘at all reasonable times, to all persons wishing to tend particular graves,’ and to keep the grounds maintained for visitors.

They must also permit the opening up of existing graves for family members of those already buried there, provide new graves for the former members of Coxall Baptist Church, and allow funeral services to take place on the grounds.
