Pecos Mission Church

In Pecos National Historical Park, just 30 miles from Santa Fe, NM, the remains of this mission church  stands as a testimony to the early Spanish efforts to convert the Pecos Indians to Christianity.

The building was constructed of adobe and wooden beams, and in the area to the right of the image (not shown) are the foundational remains of the living quarters of the church leaders.

My heart is grateful today for:

some unexpected "down" time during the day
