My Town ‘Friday Shoot-out’ Places of Worship, formal and informal

I have been taking pictures of ‘churches’ in Nova Friburgo for the past month.

There are plenty. Methodist, Jesus Christ latter-day saints, and Baptist, but I can’t find where I have hidden them.

 

Once again I dug around in ‘my picture’ folders and found a sample of what you find here in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

Friburgo does not have a cathedral like I have shown you in
Gramado in Southern Brasil or Tiradentes in the State of Minas Gerais.

 

 

 

 

 

 

But the area surrounding Friburgo has many small churches, unmarked with a denomination. They are likely to be Catholic, but unless you stop and go in looking for information there is nothing that tells you who worships here

These small neighborhood churches are well maintained, loved and cared for. They are simple but have a design that is pleasing to the eye. They are often the geographic center of these small areas and often the social center as well. The white paper on the doors are notices of activities - concerts, festivals and the like.
