Long Beach Heritage's Stan Poe plans to lead a bus tour of historic downtown-area churches from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Poe is a noted Long Beach historian and author.

Many of the stops will feature interior tours of several churches, including First Congregational, St. Luke's Episcopal, The Little Brown, First United Presbyterian, St. Anthony Catholic and St. John Missionary Baptist.

"All churches will be toured with an emphasis on the unique architecture, the beautifully designed stained glass windows and the history of the church," according to a news release from Long Beach Heritage.

Guests will board the Big Red Bus, which is donating its services, at St. Luke's Episcopal Church, 525 E. Seventh St. Parking is free.

The tour costs $20 for Heritage members and $25 for non-members. Reservations are required. Call (562) 439-7019
