Saint Martins Church
Warrenton, Texas
|
.In a state that prides itself in everything being big
this diminutive house of worship is an exception. If you can't be
the largest, try at least to be unique. With dimensions of approximately
twelve by sixteen feet, I'm not going to doubt it's boast of being the
"Worlds Smallest Catholic Church".
Located just outside of Warrenton, Texas in Fayette
county the church mostly attract tourist, however from what I could tell
services are still being held here.
Visitors are welcome and if you would like to see the
inside, just give the door a little tug. It's not locked but the
day I was there the doors was a little tight because of recent
rains.

Inside
you will find everything in place to celebrate Mass. An alter,
tabernacle, and a notebook to write prayer request. Along with
other religious icons there is a place to make donations for the upkeep
for the church.
Stop
by and visit, enjoy it, but don't mess with anything.
