We made a special trip through St. Louis last year to attend 11am Sunday Mass at this church, and it was beyond worth it. What a beautiful building, inside and out. There is also a collection of relics in the church that must be seen. After Mass, guests are invited to stay afterward for a presentation on the church's long history, and a tour of the highights of the church interior. It's a wonderful experience. I highly recommend a visit.
These older Churches or Basilica as the are referred to are magnificent structures to our Heavenly Father , I am old school , so these modern churches don't warm my heart , the older ones just demand greater reverence and in my opinion humble a person , thank God that there were some people that could see past the ruble and ruins to see her beauty , I would love to make the thousand trip to see this beautiful church before I get called home !
