A mural of the Good Shepherd painted by J.S. Brentlinger, the late local artist whose photographs were used on thousands of postcards from the Indian Lake area, has been behind the alter where Brentlinger hung it on the eve of the opening of the renovated church in the 1930s. He is believed to be the first artist to photograph the Indian Lake area from the air and was tied to a wing of a plane to get the shots.
