Pausing at St. Bonifice Church

Saint Boniface Church in New Vienna is one of the Register's 100 Places in Iowa and it's not hard to understand why. From the outside, it's a beautiful structure in a lovely setting; inside, it's a well loved house of worship. I recall three alters, the stations of the cross, and a general sense of welcome and reverence.

We arrived at the church a few minutes after a classic car club from along the river. They had set this location as a stop on their tour du jour and were enjoying a bite of breakfast. While some were eating, others were stepping inside church. Those that were inside with Linda and me were complimenting some of the various features of the church. It was a nice place to pause for a moment along the way.
