This tour will visit a dozen of the most historic places of worship in the downtown area, as we learn the history of those denominations in Texas and their early clergy, from Sumner Bacon, the first Presbyterian missionary in Texas who was denied a preaching license because he was illiterate but came anyway, to Rabbi Henry Cohen, who funneled thousands of Jewish refugees through Galveston and into the American Midwest. These experiences are led by an authorized representative of Galveston Historical Foundation, and feature authentic and researched stories and histories.
