Christ Church is the parish church of Appleton-le-Moors, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
Appleton-le-Moors was historically in the parish of Lastingham. In the 1860s, Mrs J. Shepherd commissioned a church, as a memorial to her husband. It was constructed from 1863 to 1866, to a design by John Loughborough Pearson. It is in the early French Gothic style, and was Grade I listed in 1985. [1] [2]
The church is built in limestone with slate roofs, and some of its interior details are in Rosedale ironstone. It consists of a nave with a narthex, north and south aisles, a chancel with an apse and a north chapel, and a southeast steeple. The steeple has a tower with two-light bell openings, shafts and lucarnes, and a pyramidal spire. At the west end, the narthex projects between buttresses, and the entrance arch has three orders, shafts and foliate capitals. Above it, in the gable, is a large rose window, with a botanical theme, filled with stained glass by Clayton and Bell which depicts Christian virtues. The windows elsewhere are lancets. There is a west porch, which shelters two doors into the church, between which sit the font. Inside, there is a hammerbeam roof, and pink sgraffito decoration in a Classical style, [2] [3] by Clayton & Bell, who also designed the stained glass. [4]

Holy Trinity Church is a historic Episcopal church at 615 6th Avenue South in Nashville, Tennessee, currently a parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee. The congregation was formed in 1849 as a mission of the nearby Christ Church Episcopal, attained parish status in 1851, and grew to around fifty members per service by the beginning of the American Civil War. During the war, the church was occupied by Federal troops and was badly damaged. After repairs, services continued and a new mission was opened on Wharf Avenue, which catered to the African American population of Nashville and soon overtook Holy Trinity in membership. After Holy Trinity lost parish status in 1895, the two missions merged and continued to serve the African American community of Nashville. Its congregation was largely made up of faculty and students from nearby Fisk University and other educational institutions. The mission reattained parish status in 1962, and the current rector is Bill Dennler.
