Queen of All Saints Chapel - Brooksville (FL)

4 /5 Tammy Odierna: If you are looking for a traditional, conservative church, this is the place. All women have their heads covered with veils, and dresses well below the knee. Men in suits. All is in Latin, except the homily. Overall very beautiful church.

5 /5 clare christmas: Confession here is miraculous and I have come to love it. Mass and sermons are beautiful and informative. Children are well behaved and controlled. Its no nonsense and truly Catholic. Everyone dresses modestly so there are no distractions. A beautiful place to meditate and commune with Our Lord.

1 /5 R V: This is not a Catholic Church or institution. They are not in communion with the Pope, they dont submit to the teaching authority, governance, or doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church. This is a group that has splintered off from the Catholic Church. Everyone should know this before attending or visiting. To their credit, they state the fact that dont acknowledge the Pope as a true and valid pope on their website.

2 /5 Eddie Arent: It’s a nice church for the sacraments strictly speaking but anything more than that you’re reaching. Years ago my mom was struggling and we wanted some time to have a priest speak to her and instead the pastors just offered “prayers” for her. They really didn’t care if you drove 90 minutes to come to Mass. they see anyone not agreeing with their doctrine as non Catholics so as they become dogmatic in many beliefs that they have no authority to resolve. Money talks with them, prosperity gospel for sure if you can fund their seminary or other pet projects.

1 /5 Suzanne Sowada: The building is beautiful but we were there for my sister’s funeral. I don’t know if she had attended prior to her passing or not. I have been to pre-Vatican II churches before (my sister’s wedding, my mother’s funeral) in Denver and they were beautiful. However, this funeral added to our grief. The priest greeted me in the parking lot with “I can see your knees.” I specifically bought a modest dress and it hit the middle of my knees. I wished he had said something else, like “Sorry for your loss.” The Mass was in Latin and the homily was in English. Sadly, it mentioned “fear of death,” “suffering,” and “suffering now in purgatory until our prayers release her.” Wow. Sad. How about “now comforted in the arms of Jesus”? Or “her suffering is now complete and she is joyfully reunited with the dearly departed”? It’s been a week and I’m still haunted by the strict rituals that brought us no comfort. It concluded gravesite where the priest instructed my niece to put a cover over her shoulders. It was 91 degrees and yes, her shoulders were bare. On reflection, I wonder if the priest has a neurological condition that prevents him from empathy and compassion. I had about 100 people praying for family members who have fallen from the faith in hopes they would fall in love with Jesus during these services. It would take a miracle to see Jesus in the gloom in this ceremony. My mother-in-law is a strong 86-year-old lifetime Catholic and my story broke her heart. She spoke with her priest and apparently there are other pre-Vatican II Catholic Churches near Brooksville. I wished we had used one of those. I’m sorry to even write this but I’m still shaking from grief added to grief.
