Rob B So inviting and welcoming! The space is cool, the worship is awesome and the messages inspiring. There are some of the most delicious pastries Ive ever had here as well! The relationships formed here are genuine, and it really is like a family. This is my home away from home! :)

Karen J The Cathedral itself is full of artistic wonders. The congregants are friendly and open. The sermon was thought-provoking, the choir was amazing; and as today was a feast day, the "high" service supplied all the majesty available. We attended on the 4th Sunday of the month, so a tour of the Cathedral treasures was available after the 11am service. Walter, the tour guide, was most knowledgeable and charming.

Savannah Aldridge I was looking for a church to visit while on vacation, and I was definitely enticed by the fact that the Enchantment Under the Sea dance from Back to the Future was filmed here. While at the church, I was welcomed kindly and got to participate in worship with a Christ-loving community. I was especially delighted that I had stumbled upon the day of the church picnic and was invited to stay. Through the picnic, I met some wonderful parishioners who really showed me God in a way I didnt expect when I went into church that day. The churchs history, theology, and values are listed on their website. (Reposted from my old account.)

B VC They have a Beautiful Pieta outside of the church. I went to see The Virgen Mary and gift her with these Roses in honor of my Beloved.

Olaf Choi This church is wonderful, dynamic, and Gospel Oriented. Come, check it out. You wont regret. I hope you find your rest here in this church.

Roxie Beckles Beautiful church. Wonderful and welcoming congregation and staff. I really enjoy Sunday mass and just the peaceful environment to worship each week. Reverent Novus Ordo mass. For those who need this info: * All Sunday/Vigil/Holy Day masses accompanied with an organ and cantors. Sunday 10 and 12 have a full beautiful choir. Traditional vernacular missa cantata (some response in Latin depending on the season). Daily mass is low mass. * Straight forward Traditional Vatican II solemn celebration of the mass. Meaning you wont find many "liturgical abuses" that many find concerning if you are used to/looking for a more traditional Catholic mass. * WONDERFUL priests who are ON FIRE for Gods word, and pastoring the congregation. * Sunday mass it can be a little disruptive if you wish to pray or say the rosary beforehand. People gathering and chattering among themselves in the sanctuary. BUT... * Theres a BEAUTIFUL 24 hour Adoration chapel! So you can pray there or in the Marian Garden. * A wonderful church community. Coffee and donuts after mass which is great to meet other Catholics. And other great ministries to participate in. Plenty of parking as well.

Conner Evans This is the first church I really got plugged into since moving away from home for college. Im now a part of this church on a level that I didnt expect from any church. I feel like the community at this church are like family. I love that we always have free lunch on Sundays because it lets me hang out with such great people and talk about anything from God to random memes. I think that it is 100% worth your time! Edited to update review: Its been over 5 years since I wrote my last review and I am deeply grateful for all of the experiences I have had with this church family. The people and rhythms have changed a lot over the years, but I think that is to be expected in a church that is pursuing God in such a transient city. Committing to be a part of this community has been a joy. They draw me deeper into relationship with God and tangibly reflect the love that he has for me. All that to say, you should definitely check it out and see if it is the community that God wants you to meet you in. Worst case scenario, we still provide free lunches every Sunday! (which is actually extra awesome because it allows us to get to know you!)

Jenny Perea Open from the side during the week. Very calm clean and nice Catholic Church

Fran H I really appreciate the church has confession available in between 10:30 and 12:40 mass on Sunday. The homilies are very good and deep. Very pleasant community. Plenty of street parking.
