[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.10062]
Photograph used for a story in the Oklahoma City Times newspaper. Caption: "One of the most recent developments in such a technique in Oklahoma City is the proposed sanctuary of St. John's Episcopal Chirch, designed by William G. Parr. The sanctuary is Kite-shaped, a modified greek cross, and seating is arranged on three sides of the pilpit. 'Something Natural' "When we began designing the church the parishoners wanted a seating arrangement which would bring them closer to the priest," he said. "They wanted something more natural.".........Since communion and the altar essentially are the focal point of the entire service at St. John's, it was only natural and more functional that the altar be located near the nave's center, Jones said. (photo tag: Architect's drawing of proposed St. John's Episcopal Church santuary illustrates the realtionship of ritual to architecture. The altar is near the nave's center, surrounded by the congregation on three sides.)"
