Little Church in the Pines

This is the chapel on the grounds of the Carmelite Monastery in Covington, Louisiana.
The Carmelite Order is one who remains mostly cloistered and spends most of their days in prayer.
This chapel was brought here on a flatbed truck, a long and tedious ordeal, from Bedico, Louisiana. It was a donation to the nuns. Most of it is original to the structure except for a new pine floor and the simple, yet beautiful, stained glass windows.


other sizes: small medium original auto
