Full Gospel Lighthouse

They say that a photograph is worth a thousand words. If that is true, and if you want to see what rural religion is like in America,then drive north of Doyle on Highway 395 and look for the Pentecostal Church of God's Full Gospel Lighthouse on the right. White sign, white clapboard, dark windows, darkened door, strange sky.

Religious Conversion

The building that used to be a church in Constantia is now in Doyle, on Highway 395 south of Honey Lake. It is owned by a local historical society. In 2006 it was under rehabilitation. Surely, now, in 2008, it is as good as new. "It's 150 to 200 years old," the painter who was painting it said. This claim has not been verified. The town of Doyle plans to use it for civic events. This is a good example of how Americans handle the separation of church and state on the local level. [This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject.

Doyle Grocery Hotel

Doyle is on U.S. Highway 395 south of Honey Lake. The Grocery Hotel is on the north side of the town park, a nice park with a gazebo and tepee and a dog who comes by to check you out and carefully marks the part that is his. The owner said, "The hotel is functional. It's old Grandma's house, with a living room, dining room, kitchen, and 7 bedrooms, all with double beds. We're a well-kept secret. You should know that the famous lizard races are the first week in August. The world champion just pulled into town. He did six feet in 0.9 seconds."
