Spiritual sanctuary meets architectural beauty at this historic parish where Gothic Revival grandeur and welcoming community create space for worship, reflection, and service. The soaring ceilings and stunning stained glass windows inspire contemplation while active ministries serve the neighborhood's diverse needs. From daily masses to community outreach, this sacred space honors both tradition and social justice.

I’m not a religious man, though I was baptized and raised Catholic, which is perhaps part of the reason why in times of turmoil, when I need to reflect, or when I’m just feeling overwhelmed or lost, I visit the church and just sit for a while to take in the pure beauty and magic of that structure and I breathe in the same air as many people before me in this neighborhood’s rich history. I sit in a pew and I think about all of the artists, thinkers, leaders, creators, heroes, and legends that have lived here and at some point sat in the same church and I always leave feeling stronger and more at peace. Plus the choir on Xmas Eve!!! Just magical.
