We are the church with all the banners and signs,” said The Reverend Susan Copley, Rector of Christ Episcopal Church on South Broadway in Tarrytown. A rainbow flag hangs in front of the church, and, among other signs that have graced the front wrought-iron fence over the years is one stating “Immigrants and Refugees Welcome.”
Christ Church has a rich history. Built of brick in 1837 in village Gothic Revival style, luminous Victorian stained glass windows grace its walls. The founder of American literature and historian, Washington Irving, was a patron and early warden. (His pew is tucked into a corner of the Church by the decorated Victorian baptismal font.)
