The weather was a little frightful yet the company

The weather was a little frightful yet the company was so delightful at our first ever drive-up event this Christ the King Sunday! After worship online, members drove in to pick up Advent materials, support our J2A (high school group) by ordering seasonal greens, drop off pledge cards, and enjoy familiar faces. Thanks to all who participated! ❄️🕯#christtheking #adventbegins #j2a

This is the day that the Lord made (in different years) Ed Maki-Schramm, our Director of Music, and Calebria Webb, our Associate for Education & Community Engagement, and we are so very, very glad indeed! Happy birthday to you both, @edmakischramm and @musicwithcalebria! 🎂🥂

Monday Funday...Look at all that nice new mortar going in! The new mortar is a darker color until it dries, at which point it blends in with the existing mortar. In contrast, the new sandstones are lighter than the old ones, and over time will darken. #historicrestoration #historicrenovation #historicarchitecture #historicdetroit #historicchurch #detroitarchitecture #gothicrevival #gordonlloyd #churchesofdetroit #masonry #tuckpointing #tlc @ramconstructionservices @quinnevans.qe @episcopalmichigan

We are excited to welcome Dr. Sandra T. Montes as our guest preacher this Sunday, November 15th, on YouTube and Facebook at 10:30am (or later! watch whenever you want!). Dr. Montes serves the Church in many ways, including with the @epischfdtn and @unionseminary. She has a doctorate in education and frequently teaches and speaks (and sings!) about diversity and equity in @theepiscopalchurch. She is the author of "Becoming REAL and Thriving in Ministry" (May 2020). During Advent, Dr. Montes will facilitate a pilot discussion group about racism in our lives. This pilot program has grown out of our leadership’s conversations and commitments to racial healing and justice in metro Detroit.

Many thanks to @richardthomas1365 for the floral iconography on this Feast of All Saints. Richard based it upon 1 Corinthians 13:12: “For now we see through a glass darkly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known.” #allsaintsday #allsaintsday2020 #prayer #flowers #flowerchurch #love #memory #churchesofdetroit #episcopalchurch #episcopalchurchwelcomesyou

Bell tower restoration update: New sandstone has arrived! These new stones will replace old stones that have become damaged or deteriorated by wind and water throughout these past 160 years. These new stones should last another 160 years or more! Amazing to think that this work will serve our children’s children’s children’s children. #legacy #ccd175 #historicchurch #historicpreservation #historicrestoration #masonry #detroitarchitecture #detroitpreservation #detroitchurches #churchesofdetroit #historicdetroit #episcopalchurch
