Hardin is a wonderful little river town and this is a wonderful little church. I find it to be a vary pretty rural parish church and it is lovingly cared for and it shows.

The view is superb.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192494998023993595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9437006.post-65689812501121953842009-08-02T01:43:27.849-05:002009-08-02T01:43:27.849-05:00The carpet was installed 3-4 years ago as part of ...The carpet was installed 3-4 years ago as part of a remodel that changed EVERYTHING about the church.
