Church of the Annunciation Cranston, RI |

The Church of the Annunciation is home to a Greek Orthodox parish. It was built in the late 1960s, with its first service in 1968. It features a huge domed roof. There are adjacent buildings (last photo) which mimic the style of the main church. [third, fourth and fifth photos thanks DinerFan] [map] |

Pilgrim Lutheran Church Warwick, RI |
The Trinity Assembly of God might not be mid-century modern but I'll include it anyway. It features an interesting dome-like canvas or vinyl roof. Does anyone know more about it? [map]
