Greensboro has so much religious diversity. On Greensboro Daily Photo, we post something religious or spiritual every Sunday which equates to almost 12 years of Sundays or, over 600. Every week, just when we start to wonder what we can post for Sunday, something pops into mind, or in front of the lens. A couple of weeks ago, we were out getting masks from the tree in Beverly Ramsey's front yard. We noticed a Sunday morning cyclist pedaling into view with the First Moravian Church serving as a lovely backdrop.
The First Moravian Church of Greensboro is located at 304 South Elam Avenue. This above church building dates to the 1950s; however, the religion dates to the 1,400s. If you are local, you know Old Salem is a Moravian community. In spite of meeting remotely through Zoom during the pandemic, the congregation remains active, especially with food drives and with getting a new organ. They have removed the carpet and refinished the original hardwood floors. Both Old Salem and the First Moravian are approaching the busiest season of the year, the Christmas season. Here is a photo we took in 2009 (see here).
Quite an approach.
