The Dau Church History Library, housed on the third floor of Otte Hall of Historic Trinity, is fast becoming the center for church history and preservation. The library works in close cooperation with other historical libraries and institutes. SENIOR CITIZEN OUTREACH program of Senior Citizen OutreachHistoric Trinity Inc. strives to meet the emotional, physical, psychological, spiritual and social needs of Senior Citizens in downtown Detroit. The staff and volunteers work to provide services that will enhance the quality of the lives of senior residents. Senior citizens who move into the many Senior Hi-Rise Buildings often shut themselves in their small apartments, leaving their secure environment only for the absolute necessities. In many ways these senior citizens have put themselves in "storage" in these Hi-Rise "warehouses". The staff, parish members and volunteers of Historic Trinity reach out with love and concern through a variety of programs to activate and motivate these senior citizens. RESTORATION AND RENOVATION OF FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS The Historic Trinity Inc. assists in the raising of funding for the restoration and renovation of the cathedral church, and assists in the leadership and development of groups and programs. The interior of the church continues to be restored, the lighting and sound system has been renovated and updated, the organ has undergone restoration, the stained glass windows have been restored, and the work goes on!
