- Amy CummingsJanuary 10, 2018One of the most beautiful churches (and masses) I’ve ever been to. Get there early before mass to walk around and explore.

John BJune 4, 2013Skip the guided tour. The docents read the plaques to you. Get the guide pamphlet at the visitor's desk and go at your own pace.
Matt AmendJanuary 24, 2012Get early so you can sit in the middle and be able to see the alter. Check out the church gift shop too! Haha what church has a gift shop- JH H-DAugust 5, 2022My favorite space is for our lady of Guadeloupe. It’s a beautiful alcove for reflection
