Re The Church of Bethesda-By-The Sea, 141 S County Rd, Palm Beach, FL 33480
There's a blend of good and not-so-good here. One of the NOT so good is the old school stereotypes that still rule the nest. For example, when one of the elderly greeters saw my facial hair, I could see his smile instantly disappeared as he signaled his disapproval.
Excuse me sir, but this IS 2022. We're NOT living in the 50's anymore. I have nicely groomed facial hair. That's NOT a bad thing. It's NOT rebellious. It DOESN'T make me a bad person.
But there are some positive things here as well. Obviously there is beautiful architecture and also some very kind and friendly people who seem to care about others and that's a good thing π.
God Bless
