Description
The Episcopal Church of the Advent was founded in 1925. As constituent members of the Anglican Communion in the United States, we are descendants of and partners with the Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church. Lewis P. Bohler was the pastor from 1961 to 1996.
Reverend Lewis P. Bohler in the sanctuary of the church with a group of 26 women in a semi circle behind him, wearing formal dress attire, with several wearing hats and fur wraps. On the wall behind them is a mosaic.
