Salisbury - 16 JAN 2008

This week I was in Salisbury teaching in a trailer behind the Corrections Facility. I found this little church across the street. 
The name really intrigues me…would love to know the story behind it. After photographing their small cemetery, I noticed a headstone in the woods and went to investigate. 
I found several unmarked graves that were sunken-in. Unfortunately, they don’t show up very well on the photos.
I did some research and found the Rose of Sharon is the common name for several different species of flowering plants and has Biblical reference which is actually a mistranslated Hebrew word (Havatzelet or crocus).
