Tours of Tulsa
"Astonishing church buildings, built with grandeur and beauty in styles of both the past and present are an important part of Tulsa’s past and Tulsa today. On this tour we’ll hear about the founding of the downtown churches built between 1914 and 1929 when oil and prayer funded these powerful monuments to religious beliefs that are still vibrant and active today. We’ll visit the interior of a number of the churches to see their extraordinary beauty close-up and hear about their history. The churches of Tulsa tell the story of its people and their faith, a story that resonates in the past and reverberates for the present and the future."
