 Pastor Weatherby’s Dream I

$315.00

This building is on the south side of Hwy. 62 grade heading to Morongo. But you won’t recognize it nowadays.  To me, with its’ tall “bell Tower”, it looked like it should be a church. When I decided to paint it, I began asking around. I wanted to know the real story behind it. I called around and was told that “Pastor Weatherby built the little chapel but passed away before he ever held a service there. It was passed on to his grandson…” Nobody seems to have anymore information about it. Every time we drove past, more and more vandalism had take place. It was getting very sad and rundown.  I notice last year someone is restoring it. but the bell tower has been removed.

From asking about, I was told that this building was Pastor Weatherby’s dream designed to be a church.

However, recently it appears to have been remodeled. The steeple is gone, but at least, now the building is loved.
