Photo gallery from the city's third 'Mass Mob' this summer. Nearly 2,000 people packed an historic Catholic Church for a regular Sunday Mass. It's the third time it's happened, with the crowds getting bigger each time. (Detroit Free Press had a great article on it here, but won't let folks post excerpts, so you'll have to read the article at the link: http://www.freep.com/article/20140713/NEWS05/307130141/Detroit-Mass-Mob-Sweetest-Heart )

I went to a Methodist where we took communion by hand kneeling.

Thanks for the ping. What are they doing…handing out money from the government? Passing around the redistribution plate?

That is wonderful news. There are some beautiful gothic and romanesque catholic churches still standing in Detroit, waiting for the faithful. Perhaps a real rennassance is unfolding after all!

It is truly a great work of holy art!
