Michigan Episcopal bishop heads virtual memorial service for George Floyd
View Comments
To mark the first anniversary of the death of George Floyd, whose life ended when a Minneapolis police officer pinned him to the ground, the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan is inviting worshipers to go online for a virtual memorial service Tuesday.
Episcopal dioceses from the United States and Canada are slated to participate in the service, which starts at 8 p.m. on Facebook and the Michigan diocese s website. The service also will highlight other African Americans who have died in encounters with law enforcement.
The aim is motivating people to act locally, said the Rt. Rev. Bonnie Perry, bishop for the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan, who spearheaded and is co-leading the effort.
For more than 100 years, Hartford Memorial Baptist Church in Detroit always kept its doors open for services, with Easter drawing its largest crowds.
But last year for the first time in its history, it was closed on Easter Sunday for in-person services, as were many churches across Michigan and the world because of the COVID-19 pandemic. I don t ever remember the church closing before for any reason, the
Rev. Charles Christian Adams, Hartford s presiding pastor, told the Free Press. We have remained open through war, through social upheavals, the riots, both of them.
Now, the historic congregation plans to reopen for the first time since March 2020, but at one-third of its 1,500-person capacity to maintain social distancing. More churches are also opening for the first time during the pandemic for in-person services on Sunday, while others have already been open for months.
