It is also known as Old Christ Church, Detroit. It is the oldest Protestant church in Michigan still located on its original site.[3] It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1970[2] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[1] HistoryBrothers Robert (Jr.) and William Stead ran a wholesale grocery business at the present site of Christ Church until the year 1844.[4] Christ Church Detroit was founded by a group of Episcopalians in 1845, who decided that St. Paul's Church (now St. Paul's Cathedral) was too crowded.[5] The founders built a small wooden church, designed by Lieutenant Montgomery C. Meigs, as its first place of worship. Fifteen years later, plans were laid for a new building on the same site.[6] In 1861, a chapel was constructed near the original structure for use while a larger church was constructed.[6] The present church, designed by Gordon W. Lloyd, was completed in 1864.[5] ConstructionThe church is built in an American Gothic style, using limestone and sandstone;[5] a massive belfry with a squared-off Germanic roof[3] dominates the front facade.[6] The interior boasts transepts with galleries and hammerbeam trusses supporting the roof.[6] All interior woodwork, save the roof, is made from local butternut.[6] There are two Tiffany windows in the church,[5] with more windows designed by other famous glass companies such as Franz Meyer and Company and J. Wippell and Co..[6] Current useThe Christ Church building has been continuously by an Episcopalian congregation since its construction. As of 2009, the Rector was the Rev. John Talk.[7] The congregation describes themselves as "a contemporary, well-educated, multi-racial, multi-ethnic congregation carrying out Christ's mission in the world around us, strengthened, nurtured, and guided by the presence of the Holy Spirit."[8] The next-door Sibley House serves as offices.
