Piety Hill Musings

The ramblings of the Rector of St. John's Episcopal Church of Detroit. Piety Hill refers to the old name for our neighborhood. The neighborhood has changed a great deal in the over 160 years we have been on this corner (but not our traditional biblical theology) and it is now known for the neighboring theatres, the professional baseball and football stadiums and new hockey/basketball arena.

Looking ahead to Spring

As we sit in another deep freeze here in Michigan, and we prepare for the upcoming Super Bowl, Sgt. Terry Lichonczak sent me some photos from Tiger Opening Day back in the Spring. Sgt. Terry was at the Mounted Unit, recently disbanded by the City of Detroit. Yes, that is me on the second horse from the left, with the Sarg on the left. I rode with the First Troop Philadelphia City Calvary www.ftpcc.com in college, which came in helpful as Chaplain to the mounted unit here in Detroit until it was disbanded in October 2005.

Baseball is right around the corner. My son Andrew (8 y.o.) has an indoor camp this Saturday to get ready for the upcoming season!
