Houses of Worship: St. John's Episcopal Church

One of the older churches in the Downtown Area is St. John's Episcopal Church. This building was constructed in the mid-1800s, and the congregation was established in the late 1850s. Besides Sunday, the Church is open during the week for a couple of hours for people to stop in and pray and for weekday prayer services. . It's located right on Woodward near Comerica Park and the Fox Theatre, as well. . It's known for it's "Pray here for the Lions and Tigers" sign that adorned the side of the church facing Comerica Park, which was no longer shown on the side of the building. The Church is also visible on I75, which is to the immediate north of the building. The thing that I like about the Church are the many adornments on the outside.
