Title
English: Church Façade
Description
English:

Built from earthen-colored adobe bricks, the church facade is preserved yet not restored. The facade shows both original adobe brick, as well as a smooth, beige, plaster coating. On the left, an arched espadaña or pediment made of bricks frames a large, darkened doorway with arched wooden doors. The large doorway is symmetrically framed on each side by a pair of columns which together hold up a cornice supporting two pairs of additional pillars above which frame the large second-story window. All pillars have Egyptian style capitals at their tops. Between each pair of pillars is an empty niche holding a round, pendant-shaped statue pedestal and framed above by a pointed, moorish-style arch. Above the second floor, the top part of the facade rises to form a semicircular shape which holds atop its center, a small, round, plaster-covered finial anchoring a simple wooden cross. On the right side of the building, there is large window on the first floor to the right of the doorway.

The front of the church was brightly painted. The columns were red and the Egyptian-style capitals yellow with black markings. The statue niches were blue. You can still see holes in the bell tower where scaffolding was built into the walls during construction.
