Germantown residents are in for a treat on Saturday: a historic tour with a spiritual twist. The Germantown Historical Preservation Association will present a Places of Faith tour of three historic Germantown places of worship on Saturday, April 13 at 2 p.m.

“This year, history is reaching beyond the center of Old Germantown to reveal additional diversity in the faiths and architecture among our citizens,” said City Historian Andy Pouncey.

The $15 tour will begin at Kingsway Christian, move on to Our Lady of Perpetual Help Chapel and conclude at St. George Episcopal Church’s original chapel. Parking is available at each location.

Each chapel will showcase what is unique and historic, with personal stories, photographs and examples of how much the chapels were the center of our community. Attendees will also learn about their restorations and other historical tidbits.

Tickets are available for purchase at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/places-of-faith-tour-tickets-863987759647?aff=oddtdtcreator&fbclid=IwAR0XwGWHHdKCfTNVVfM247bU1PHo-Yycd6dUkqQoPqGd96RrK36w4d2L2-o_aem_ATYMBAawXtaGahgnkd-foPDFTnBCWTQRrx9HAmskZC4WrY85XDAVm7_AFKeak7C-A4WCfsGA6Ez1mEzvIFdBLisd
