- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-31796 MODERN DESIGN BURLINGTON, Mass. -- The newly dedicated ultra-modern St. Malachy’s church -- which some say looks like a caterpillar -- draws parishioners and sight-seers. The Burlington, Mass., church was dedicated by Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston. It is named in honor of St. Malachy, 12th Century Primate of Armagh, Ireland. The building’s unusual features include a cone-shaped baptistry near the main entrance and a three-prong fork-like steeple. A glass partition divides the interior at its mid-section to separate the main church from a smaller chapel. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (CB-BOS-11A-64-NAB)
