Inside the Old Stone Church, rural Kenyon, Minnesota » Hauge stenciling

In the balcony, historian Bob Dyrdahl shows me this treasure, the dated (October 30, 1894) signature of A. P. Lindgren who painted stars upon the ceiling edged by a stenciled border. His work also graces other sections of the sanctuary, along the stairway, for example.
