Pale Cold Light

At the end of the year, the pale sunlight 

broke through the cloud cover just long enough 

to shine a ray or two on Christ Church Cathedral.

 Opened in 1857, the cathedral is the oldest religious 

building in Indianapolis in continuous use.

As the cathedral church of the Episcopal Diocese

of Indianapolis, the structure has been a part of

the city's growth, as well as having long ago

been dwarfed by surrounding structures.

To it's credit, in a time when many religious and 

corporate organizations seemed to have 

lost their mission and morality, 

this church has remained stalwart,

 reasonable, and humane.
