5310 ch. Chambly, Saint-Hubert, Quebec
This small church is one of the oldest on the south shore of Montreal. The exterior is built of stone and masonry and the interior is handcrafted wood. The architect was Victor Bourgeau and construction began in May of 1858. Blessed on January 9, 1859 by Monseigneur Ignace Bourget the Archbishop of Montreal, the church was completed on the 15th of October 1862. The first mass was celebrated on October 28th 1862. I first photographed this church in April 2007 while visiting my mother who lives nearby. When I heard that we would be doing a wrinkle tribute I thought I would do mine outside the location of my best of 2007 submission as I was again in the area visiting for the Christmas holidays.
