Beautiful Churches


I've been wanting to post about this for awhile, but I haven't had a chance until today. We, as Catholics, have thousands of beautiful churches, cathedrals, and basilicas around the world. I want to share pictures of some of these.

Please comment below and leave links to information and pictures on some of your favorite Catholic Churches. Here's some of mine:

  1. The Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, which houses St. Louise and St. Catherines' bodies.
  2. The Basilica of St John Lateran
  3. Holy Name Cathedral
  4. Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception

I was at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception yesterday for the Rite of Election. Wow! The pictures on the websites do not do it justice. It was truly incredible to have the Rite of Election be the first time I was there, too.

(They do the Rite of Election there instead of St. Matthew the Apostle because it is bigger, I'm told.)

Horicon,

Mary was sinless too because of Jesus. For the explanation, please see this link:
