THE CHURCH OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION, DUBLIN, GEORGIA

Photographs of the Church of the Immaculate Conception
Dublin, Georgia
submitted by Darlene Calvert Farrell


from "The Missionary Servant" magazine
December 1960






On a mission with an area greater than Connecticut the priests necessarily spend many hours a week driving to and from churches and homes. Many of the houses along the road are empty - signs of the strong trend to the cities...(Highway 96-Houston County)
