1219 West 31st Street, Minneapolis, MN, USA
1219 31st St. West Home History Downs and Eads, 1907 Established in 1886 as a mission, this church was renamed in 1905 after a Methodist bishop, Isaac Joyce, who died while delivering a fire-and-brimstone sermon at a revival meeting. This stucco church is one of the more thoroughgoing local examples of the California Mission look, complete with a three-stage tower, sculpted parapets, and tile roofs. The sun- kissed Mission Style isn't one you'd normally associate with the rigorous tenets of Methodism, but the Joyce congregation obviously warmed to it. Citation: Millett, Larry.
