School Outing to Iroquois Longhouse

On our Tom Thumb Outing in November of 2010, we visited the Church of the North American Martyrs. It was built like an Iroquois long house, with a barrel-shaped ceiling and false-face masks staring outward to ward off evil spirits. The building’s architecture and artifacts were interesting and allowed the childern to experience first hand our local  native American Indian influence in the area and a little bit of history at the same time.

Our thanks to the Pastor  of Columbanus Church for allowing Tom Thumb students to visit this historic building for over 40 years.
