Sunday in San Francisco at St. Dominics Church When we visit with daughter Barbara we attend her church. It is a beautiful Gothic style church built of Limestone on Steiner. The altar and art glass windows are a true work of art. The altar is carved wood with such unique detail. I always think it is unfortunate when something so priceless and a lost art is covered with paint but thankfully it is preserved and still there to view and appreciate.The windows could be Tiffany. The windows are just beautiful and sorry the photos do not give enough of the detail. The church built in 1873 represents the sacrifices of many generous church members who made this beautiful church possible. It stands today for many other generations to appreciate and use as a house of worship. I look at buildings built before 1906 which was the year of the great earthquake of San Francisco and amazingly how many still stand today.
