I'd never heard of "The Lord's New Church" before. This denomination is also often referred to as Swedenborg Church after its founder. My cousin's husband works at the church's large property in Huntington Valley, Pennsylvania, and my cousin and I went for a walk around the grounds and the fields there. The buildings are obviously old, but we could find no cornerstones indicating when they were built, nor did a web search reveal the history of this property and the buildings found there. If you wish to learn more about their beliefs, here is link about Swedenborg Church.
Can you see the frogs? They were plenteous, with lots of tadpoles as well. |

Interesting place. Once I went to a Swedenborg service at a beautiful chapel in Palos Verdes, which sadly has been dismantled due to earth movement.
ReplyDeleteOh, such a wonderful place to see!
ReplyDeleteVery old and beautiful. Also, it looks very well maintained.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting place. When I saw the title it reminded me of a band that I liked when I was a teen "The Lords of the New Church" ;-)
