A Different Steeple

Since starting this blog, I have posted many photographs of the Mt. Zion Lutheran Church steeple. A member of the Christ Reformed Church whom I met recently pointed this out and suggested, in a friendly way, that there are other churches in town too. He is right. Mt. Zion is a major feature of the Middletown skyline, but Christ Reformed Church is less than a block away and sits on a property at least as large as Mt. Zion.



Both churches played important non-religious roles in the days after the Civil War Battle of Antietam. This sign explains some of that.
