Edward FitzGerald ran, and won, the first election for Cuyahoga County Executive in 2010. He ran for governor in 2014, and lost. It is very easy for a Democrat to win the City of Cleveland, and Cuyahoga countywide; but Ohio is basically East Indiana. FitzGerald is an Irish Catholic. He campaigned for the black vote, and black churches have many hand fans printed as advertising. Elsewhere, in the church was a new, and unmarked 2019 calendar. I do not know the last time the church was used. It seemed as if everything was left behind, and now some vandalism has occurred.
Around that once lighted cross, it reads:
One Lord, one faith, one baptism — Ephesians 4. 5.
To that space left of it, there once was an immersion fount (now gone, probably by a metal scrapper). Behind the wall, there are steps leading into it, which now would be a fall. Also, on either side of the center grouping of pews, there will be a fall. The metal grates of the under floor venting system have been taken.
Last occupant was Pine Grove Missionary Baptist Church. The occupant before was St. Elizabeth Baptist. St. Elizabeth Baptist bought St. Hyacinth's campus from Bishop Lennon very, very cheaply.
