The Great Hallelujah Holiday Tour of Churches, Part II

The Trinity Episcopal Church at 125 E. Broad Street was our 2nd church on The Great Hallelujah Holiday Tour of Churches.  It's building was older then First Congregational Church, and more colorful.  In appearance I would say it was perhaps the most unique church.  I loved the domed ceiling and contrast of bright royal blue with the yellow walls.  

This church was built in 1869 and is the oldest building on capital squares , except for the Statehouse. George W. Lloyd, a Detroit architect was born in England.

The church is built in the Gothic Revival style, a romantic Victorian style based upon the buildings in the middle ages. The White Marble alter is patterned after  a 5th century alter in Ravenna, Italy.  Though I recently returned from a fabulous trip to Italy, I did not visit Ravenna.

The church as many outreach type programs and is very involved in assisted homeless in the area and involved with social justice issues of the day; similar to First Congregational Church.

The screens are hand carved...truly gorgeous and very detailed.
Lots of arches and interesting shaped stained glass windows.

This church is known for their carillon bells which were played for us.  We heard them best outside as we made our way to our next stop.  This church is on the National Resister of Historic Places.

  5. Beautiful Church. I was raised Episcopalian and they do build churches with great stained glass windows. Most of the Episcopal churches I have known have outreach and social justice programs. I would have loved to hear the carillon bells. Amazing and loved the carvings.
