The Clifton Chapel
The church building is pre-civil war

 
This is the Narthex - what you see when you walk in the doors

 
Here is the bema - the raised area from which the priest officiates


Here's a closer look at the altar area and the items on the altar table


And a close up of the two icons: Madonna and Child on the left, Christ the Savior on the right
