A beautiful church. The church has a peaceful atmosphere and is very historic. The chapel is very great as well.

The shrine is amazing. The young man who works in the gift shop is such a pleasure. He is so sweet and the light within him is truly touching. Such a great person to interact with- especially as I imagine he is in contact with people who might be feeling hopeless. An angel among us.
