New Stockholm Lutheran Church

A sanctuary in the prairie fields. My wife and I were on a drive, leisurely, restful and looking for a place to pray and talk. We turned on to Church Road, off of #9 highway...on the north edge of the Qu’Appelle Valley. The spire was visible from the highway and we drove up to and around the church. We thought we might pray in the parking area, when a pickup turned on and approached us. We were total strangers and he encouraged us to go inside and pray. We were blessed by the beauty and the architecture of the sanctuary. Lovely! Clean. And a sense of holiness prevailed. We were smitten! We left a small token of our appreciation after singing and praying for an hour. A Sabbath rest stop, mid week in rural Saskatchewan. Good for the spirit. Health to my soul. Thanks kind stranger for inviting us into your house of worship! A true act of Christian charity. ️
