One of the oldest -- and most historic -- churches in the city of Detroit will be celebrating its 180th anniversary on Sunday. St. Matthew's and St. Joseph's Episcopal Church was founded in 1846, where it was one of the stops along the Underground Railroad. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
