A worship building adjacent to a small cemetery in a rural area near El Stretcho (between Luperon and Imbert on the North Coast). To get a sense of the size, use the cow standing just to the left in the photo.It is open air and I believe it is used for small private services and personal reflection.

This is a grave yard located in the campo/country. I love the colors of the crosses.
