Our Last Sunday at St Francis in the Valley, Green Valley, AZ.

We didn't attend this church for too long, but so many people got very attached to Landis. Especially the Gramma Kim, the nursery lady. It's set in an older community, so not many young families attend, and everyone loved to tell me stories about their grandchildren, and even stories of their own children being Landis's age. It was the nicest church we tried out in the Tucson area, which was kind of disappointing, considering I went to 5 other churches that were actually in town. St. Francis gave us the warm welcome I was looking for, and we will miss the families there very much!!
























Landis tired out the piano for the first time! We never came into this Sunday School room before :o)














































Gramma Kim always knew how to get him smiling!

Maybe if I appear to be a sleeping angel, she'll stop tickling me...














I love Gramma Kim!








She takes me for rides on her fun scooter!!









Bye Gramma Kim! I'll miss you...










Pictures of the inside of our church...




















The Choir Loft







Fun lights and Awesome stained glass windows






























Hand carved figure of Saint Francis himself.










Didn't pay attention to what/who this was but if I had to guess, I'd say Saint Michael, the Archangel? Someone tell me if I'm wrong...









Awesome hand carved bench... very creeky though :o)









I totally laid on the ground inside the bell tower to get this picture.




The outside of the belltower









The wreaths are made of dried red chiles







Front view of the church







Cool courtyard






Okay, this arch sits outside one of the Deacon's office windows, and when her dog passed, she got this statue and placed it up there so she could see her puppy whenever she wanted.
