Loch side church

Our Lady of Perpetual Succour & St. Cummin's, Morar.

This lovely place of worship sits on the side of Loch Morar near Mallaig.
Such a pretty church with its beautiful stone turret, equally lovely inside with a roof resembling an upturned boat.
Mass was being celebrated when we peeked in so we went a sat in the back pew, a small half hour of quiet peace.
Last time I was in there was as a small child, we went every Sunday while on holiday.

Talking of churches I have been to a funeral today in the village. Not very inspiring I'm afraid with no organ music, no input by family & very drab celebrant we could hardly hear! Sad.

Three good things:
1. I put in my funeral book for family not to let that chap do my funeral over my dead body!!
2. Professional Masterchef start tonight!
3. Gloves on today!

What a lovely church and setting.. sad when you go to a funeral with no personnel touches.. very depressing .. should be good music and some laughs..

@julzmaioro I agree Julz, a celebration of life even when you are sad. My family have had their instructions!! 😀

Lovely old stone church - been around for a few years - well - probably your life time!.... or more! (I just read 1889!) A grey day here but inside it would always be the same!

So glad you enjoyed that holiday! Very sad when at a bleak funeral! Music makes all the difference in the world.
