The marker is in front of the church and has the same text on both sides. It reads, "This Neo-Gothic church was dedicated on May 15, 1927, Detroit architect W. E. N. Hunter designed the limestone structure, which contains stained-glass windows by the Willet Studios of Philadelphia, Pewabic tile from Detroit and wood carvings by German carver Alois Lang. The tower houses a forty-seven-bell carillon. In 1962 the education wing was erected. The church was dedicated to the founders, who organized the nondenominational Grosse Pointe Protestant Evangelical Church on September 7, 1865. In 1867 the first church was erected at Kerby Road and Lake Shore Drive. A stone and wood-frame building, referred to as the "ivy-covered church," was built on this site in 1894. In 1920 the congregation reorganized as a Presbyterian church." It mentions that it was erected in 1991 by the Bureau of History. There is street parking and of course the church parking lot. The building was closed and secured when we stopped by. [Review 17973 overall - 366 in Michigan - 1494 of 2022.]

He held the door open for us to go in and immediately we were greeted by the Pastor. He is so amazing! He asked about us and what we were doing on our road trip. We connected and shared stories for 5-10 minutes, we felt very welcomed at this point. We went into the church and got greeted and welcomed by 10 more members. It's so cool to go into a church where the members are so involved at actually care about their church. The Pastor's wife came to say hi to us as well. She is such a sweet heart! Seek her out! It was cool to talk to her about our experience and theirs through travel. Whenever you enter a church your greeted and feel loved because your with your "Church family" , but this was different. We have never been here before and EVERYONE was so nice and welcoming. I've never experienced this before. Their hospitality was unbelievable. After Church we chatted for a few more minutes with members. I think we met everyone at the Church! I love how it's a small intimate group. The band and singer was amazing!! The woman who sings has some pipes on her! She rocked it! I'm so glad we found this Church! The pastor preached an amazing message as well. If we find ourselves back in Detroit we will be back! Thank you Courage Church for making us feel like family. We loved being there every second! God bless everyone there, we loved you all!

I regularly attended the 10:00 am Sunday Mass, where he main homilist is Monsignor Zenz. Father Zenz has some of the best homilies, and I've been to many a Catholic church in my life! The music is great, and they have a dedication to serving the community....I could go on and on. Lucky for me, Holy Name's website -- http://hnchurch.catholicweb.com -- keeps audio records of the masses and homilies, so I can continue to experience the Masses at Holy Name even though I live on the West Coast now.

Father Norm and everyone here is very active in the community making a difference. They are very involved helping the homeless, working with the Detroit Eastern Market area, helping people who have done time get reestablished, scholarships and much more. Whatever the church gets in donations goes into these good deeds 110%. The only difficulty for me is that children stay in the same area. So its been hard to take my over energetic special needs son.

The Sanctuary was one of the most beautiful I've seen in the United States! I felt like I was attending church in a grand European Cathedral. I make it a point to visit, and attend service, at historic churches when I travel around the country. I compare the revivals here in America to the originals I visit when I'm in Europe. This is a true gem right here in Detroit. If you would like to see what an old world, Northern European church looks and feels like... This would be the one to visit. The sermon was one of the best I have heard. It was modern, yet faithful to their Presbyterian roots. It had the classic traditions of how I think church should look/feel/sound like coupled with jazz quartet playing live music worth coming for in itself! A surprising combination that made the hour pass too quickly. The fellowship that followed after is what sealed the deal for me. Everyone came together to take down the Christmas decorations, with a pancake breakfast after. I was a stranger. I was alone. But I didn't feel like either one that day. I know a lot of the yelp reviews are saying Fort St. Presbyterian is a beautiful church to host a wedding...and it's true.

This is the catholic church I compare all churches to everywhere in the world. I went through catechism here and grew up with the same priest pretty much all my life. The deacon has always been the same as well. Father Tim Pelk has been a steadfast figure in this church. I have never been able to find a church that felt more at home and comfortable and warm as this church to me. I've never come across a better priest and father Tim Pelk either. I was baptized here, had my reconciliation, confirmation and was married here. This is to me what a catholic church should look like and be like. That should be the blueprint for other churches. Unfortunately this church is a half hour away from me now and it's too hard to get to every Sunday. I still do make it here every once in a while for the holidays.
