The Holy and The Broken
The house had only been around for about ten years, a blip on a timeline of the area. The church it sat behind was constructed over a hundred and fifty years ago. It was a refuge for the German immigrants who came to the U.S in the mid-1800s. The house was originally purchased for the priests until the monastery could be rebuilt.
The two large bedrooms on the second floor were used as office space while the three larger rooms on the first floor were for first year communion classes and a place for other preachers to give sermons. The basement was locked.
They said it was another house of God. I helped burn this house.
