Christ Church Cathedral, Lexington : ウィキペディア英語版
Christ Church Cathedral (Lexington, Kentucky)

Christ Church Cathedral is the seat of the Episcopal Diocese of Lexington and is located at 166 Market Street, Lexington, Kentucky. Founded in 1796, Christ Church Cathedral is the oldest Episcopal church in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.〔 Renovations over the years have sought to preserve the original structure, and remains relatively unchanged. The church created what is now called the Old Episcopal Burying Ground, located nearby. It held many who died during the cholera epidemics of 1833 and 1848, but most of the remains have been moved due to flooding.
Working with the Martin Luther King Neighborhood Association and Seedleaf, the cathedral has established a community garden. It is operated primarily to grow vegetables for nearby residents, and encourages their participation in all steps: growing, harvesting, preparing and preserving. Hundreds of pounds of vegetables are given away annually to residents and community associations. In 2009 the garden was enlarged to include fruit trees and berry bushes.〔("History" ), Christ Church Cathedral, Lexington, KY Website〕
In recent outreach, Christ Church Cathedral has supported recognition of London Ferrill, the second preacher of First African Baptist Church. He led his church for 31 years, by 1850 building a congregation of 1,820 members, the largest of any in the state. He was one of the few clergy to stay in the city during the 1833 cholera epidemic, when 500 died of a total of 7,000 people in the city, including nearly one-third of the congregation of Christ Church.〔("Christ Church Episcopal" ), Lexington, National Park Service. Retrieved 21 August 2010〕 At death in 1854, Ferrill was buried in the Old Episcopal Burying Ground, the only African American to be so honored.〔 In 2010 Christ Church supported installation of a monument to Ferrill at the burying ground, celebrating with a joint service with First African Baptist. They also supported approval of a state highway marker for the site. In addition, Christ Church named its community garden in honor of London Ferrill.〔(Tom Eblen, "Churches join to honor former slave" ), ''Lexington Herald-Leader'', 21 Feb 2010, accessed 28 Aug 2010〕
Since 2012, the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Lexington has been Douglas Hahn.〔Diocese Website front page, accessed 23 OCT 2013: www.diolex.com〕
==History of Christ Church 1796 - 1989==
The present building, the fourth to occupy the site, was erected in 1848, and enlarged to its present state during the American Civil War. James Moore became the first rector of Christ Church in 1796. He began to hold services in a small frame building on the present site of Christ Church. He was also the first President of Transylvania University〔 In 1803, a proper church building was constructed of brick replacing the quickly outgrown house.〔The Story of CHRIST CHURCH 1796 - 1976, Frances Swinford〕 In 1814 a larger brick building, stuccoed to represent stone, replaced the smaller building.
Christ Church became a cathedral in 1897 and remained so until 1944, when William Moody moved the cathedra to St. George chapel at the cathedral domain, a large camp in rural southeastern Kentucky. In 1989, the former bishop, Don A. Wimberly, moved the cathedra back to Christ Church, reestablishing it as the cathedral of the diocese, where it remains so today.〔
In 1976, Christ Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It qualified for inclusion both because of its architecture and because of its significance in the area's history.
