So amazing to witness the restoration of the bell

So amazing to witness the restoration of the bell tower underway! Joe the stonemason is up there evaluating and removing damaged mortar. The photos show one ground-level example of tuckpointing in relatively good shape, and one where Joe already has removed the damage. In many areas, the mortar has deteriorated almost completely from water, wind, and sun these past 160 years! Joe methodically is removing the mortar and testing replacement materials, and then will begin repairs—with many continued thanks to @ramconstructionservices, @quinnevans.qe, @episcopalmichigan, and our generous community! #detroit #downtowndetroit #historicdetroit #historicchurch #historicarchitecture #churcharchitecture #detroitarchitecture #detroitchurches #gordonlloyd #masonry #tuckpointing #belltowersofinstagram #historicrestoration #historicpreservation

We rejoice in @holyspokesorg, whose mission is to rebuild, recycle, and re-give bicycles, and to rejoice in bicycle riding! Volunteers gather outside (or inside when safe) to repair bikes, teach bike maintenance, and donate bikes to those who need them. The joy is infectious! #detroit #downtowndetroit #bikejoy #neighborshelpingneighbors

June is Pride Month. While events are canceled, and celebrations may be subdued, it's still an opportunity to remind ourselves of all that our LGBTQIA+ family members have endured simply to be recognized. We see you, and know that you are beloved children of God. #pride #beloved #beautiful #allmeansall #loveislove #churchesofdetroit #downtowndetroit #episcopal #episcopalchurch #episcopalchurchwelcomesyou

Thanks to Ramaiz and Obaidah of @blessingboxglobal, and the kindness and generosity of many people, there is now a Blessing Box outside of the Woodbridge St entrance of Christ Church Detroit! The box is accessible and well-lit at any time day or night. We invite you, neighbors and community members, to stock the box with unopened hygiene items and nonperishable food (think granola bars, sports drinks, pop-top cans). We also invite you take from the box whatever you require. Take what you need, bring what you can. And, team work makes the dream work! #neighborshelpingneighbors #detroit #downtowndetroit #detroitriverfront #rivertowndetroit #lafayettepark #lafayetteparkdetroit #care #love @downtowndet

In 1845, several of the city's prominent families

In 1845, several of the city's prominent families came together to found Christ Church. They were motivated by a deep & earnest wish, to share their faith in Christ with each other, their families, and with their neighbors, That wish burnished over time to become our mission: to stand as a beacon of hope in the heart of Detroit. Join in a special Pentecost & anniversary service today on YouTube or Facebook! #CCD175 #175yearsofhope

We stand with George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breona

We stand with George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breona Taylor, and Christian Cooper, beloved and cherished and whole. Our hearts shatter under the grievous weight of racism. In that insidious noose, if one cannot breathe, then no one can truly breathe. Holy Spirit, breath of life, knit us together into one body. Set us free to serve you and to respect the dignity of every human being.
