Church Pews


Back in yesteryear, church pews were not purchased, polished, or padded. They were wood, a bit crude, and strictly functional. On the positive side, they lasted a lifetime, were easy to make, and wood was plentiful. After all, people gathered to praise God, not admire finished, beautiful furniture. This particular pew is in an old French church in Louisiana.
