My second home; of course it would be my first home if they will let me live there LOL. It is such a great place to feel the presence of the Lord and to attend the most blessed Mass.

1. It's nice that they do Latin masses, but adding a " preserving the western way of life" tag to justify it seems borderline racist. (And they did this proudly on Christmas during the carols! Jesus would have enjoyed the hypocrisy here.) 2. If you're a...Read More

Their beautiful sanctuary reminded me of churches I've visited in Europe, and the staff was kind, helping me transport heavy arrangements from my car to a memorial service being held there.
