Santa Monica
St. Sebastian Catholic Church
St. Sebastian is the family parish of Santa Monica — you hear the kids in the schoolyard before you see the church. Red tile, arched tower, warm amber light on the facade after sunset.
We toured the church and the school, then stood in the parking lot talking until it got cold. It happens every time.
