Churches I have visited: St. Barbara Catholic Chuch - Dearborn, Michigan

I traveled to Dearborn, Michigan in August of 2012 to attend the Daughters of Isabella International Convention.  Both the opening Mass and the closing Mass were held at St. Barbara's Catholic Church which is incredibly beautiful.  Here are some pictures I took with my iPhone.






A Parish of The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit MI, St. Barbara's parish was founded in 1924.  The churent church was built in 1955, and has Masses in english and in polish. I particularly loved the state of the Baptism of Jesus, which also serves as the Baptismal Font.  As you walk around to the back, you will find Jesus in his tomb.  My photos do not do it justice.  I could have spent hours here.  Sadly, as we were leaving after the closing Mass, we were told that this church was possibly going to be closed.  I pray that's not the case.
