You're welcome.

You're welcome. Yes, it's a miniature church that he's found. When he says, 'The meeting house was finer built than they were years ago," he means that the model is fancier than an old country church would have been.

I have a little town set up for the holidays. It has two churches. One is a modest clapboard church (The Church of the Dearly Beloved Brethren.) The other is fancier, and it doesn't have a name yet. In time it will have a miniature manger scene in front of it, but it's too early for that at present.

Have you ever played "Here's the church, and here's the steeple?" You probably have. Did you know that after "see all the people" the index finger gives a sermon? It goes

Dearly beloved brethren, is it not a sin,
when we eat potatoes to throw away the skin?
For the skins feed pigs; and the pigs feed you.
Dearly beloved brethren, is this not true?
