I found this photo of the “old” Saron Lutheran church at my folks house this weekend. I thought I’d toss in a contemporary photo of it today as well. Most of you know how I love then and now comparisons! 

I added a few slides my folks had of the choir and mother daughter or father son banquets to show the interior. Note the men served at the mother daughter events!

Lynn Asher Wow! This cracks me up to see gramps in the kitchen and in dress clothes. The kitchen in old Saron Lutheran church. I remember they had many dinners there, we would be lined up the stairs. I’m thinking this was maybe a mother/daughter banquet. That’s why all the guys are in the kitchen.
