Communion is about my personal journey and how I found my way back to faith.\"\n\nOne detail of the book cover quickly raised eyebrows. While Vance's story centers around reaffirming his faith by joining the Catholic church, the house of worship depicted on the book's cover is decidedly not Catholic.\n\nPEOPLE confirms that the church shown on the cover is the Mt. Zion United Methodist Church, located in Elk Creek, Va., an unincorporated community in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The stock photograph was initially captured by local photographer Tim Pennington.\n\n\n\n\n\nMt. Zion United Methodist Church in Elk Creek, Va. Getty\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSource\n\n\n\n\n\n",
