Come to hear Richard Carter discuss the fascinating history behind the 
building of The Church of the Messiah in Woods Hole. His story weaves its 
way from Boston to England to Savannah, GA -- from Joseph Story Fay, a 
wealthy and powerful entrepreneur, to the dons of Oxford and three Cambridge 
undergraduates to General Sherman’s army. Mr. Carter will discuss 
the architecture of the church, which was built in 1888, while giving 
us a broad sweep of the times. 

The lecture is free to the public.
