Beecher Bible Church on the Kansas Prairie


An old stone church rests on the Kansas prairie under summer skies. This historic church received "Beecher Bibles" from abolitionists in Massachusetts in the days before the American Civil War. Crates with Bibles on top and rifles underneath were sent to abolitionists in Kansas, a Free State.
