St Joseph Catholic Church, 2565 3rd St, Trenton, MI 48183, US

One of the oldest churches on Grosse Ile, Sacred Heart Church is also one of the most unique. Its altar is located in the center of the worship space, with the pews surrounding it on all sides. In addition, a soaring, glass-fronted gathering space was added in 1988, creating a dramatic, but accessible entrance. For many years, this unique space was the site of an island-wide ecumenical holiday celebration. The open feeling of the architecture is reflected in the warmth and welcome offered by parishioners. In addition to the main church, services are held in a small stone chapel (the original church) located on church-owned land on the Detroit River. Many brides choose this picturesque site for their weddings.
