St Luke's Church, Bristol Street, Birmingham
St Luke's Church, Bristol Street, Birmingham was a former parish church in the Church of England in Birmingham, later used by the Redeemed Christian Triumphant Church of God. The building was demolished in 2018 as part of a housing redevelopment project by Barratt Homes. History The first building on the site was erected in 1842 by the Birmingham Church Building Society, to designs of the architect Harvey Eginton. The church was consecrated on 28 September 1842 by Henry Pepys, the Bishop of Worcester. The exterior stonework was poor quality, and the building eroded quickly. By the end of the nineteenth century it was condemned and demolished. Land was taken from the parish to form the parish of St David's Church, Highgate in 1866. A replacement was built in brick on the same site designed by local architect Edward Mansell and opened in 1903. The building was sold by the Church of England in 2003 and acquired by the Redeemed Christian Church of God. The Church of England co ...

Alumni Of St John's College, Cambridge
Alumni (: alumnus () or alumna ()) are former students or graduates of a school, college, or university. The feminine plural alumnae is sometimes used for groups of women, and alums (: alum) or alumns (: alumn) as gender-neutral alternatives. The word comes from Latin, meaning nurslings, pupils or foster children, derived from "to nourish". The term is not synonymous with "graduates": people can be alumni without graduating, e.g. Burt Reynolds was an alumnus of Florida State University but did not graduate. The term is sometimes used to refer to former employees, former members of an organization, former contributors, or former inmates. Etymology The Latin noun means "foster son" or "pupil". It is derived from the Latin verb "to nourish". Separate, but from the same root, is the adjective "nourishing", found in the phrase '' alma mater'', a title for a person's home university.

Bow Church
Bow Church is the parish church of St Mary and Holy Trinity, Stratford, Bow. It is located on a central reservation site in Bow Road (part of the A11), in Bow, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. There has been a church on the same site for approximately 700 years. The church was bombed in the Second World War, and the bell tower was reconstructed just after the war. History The church (as a chapel of ease) was licensed by bishop Ralph Baldock of London on 17 November 1311 for the people of Stratford-at- Bow within the parish of Stepney. Before this, local people were obliged to travel to St Dunstan's, Stepney, to attend church. This was a difficult journey - especially in winter - when the road was cut off by flooding. In the 14th century, they felt confident and wealthy enough to petition for their own place of worship. The chapel of ease allowed them to practise their religion locally, but they were still obliged to attend St Dunstan's at Stepney on religious holidays ...
