I grew up Baptist and was surrounded by hellfire, brimstone and negativity as my point of view of religion. Not a very accepting and understanding place to be. The Crossing is a breath of fresh air and is welcoming and understanding. I can't speak enough of how much peace this church and it's people bring me. Not a hateful or judgmental place

Sacred Heart Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic church in the diocese of Jefferson City, MO. and…read moreis located in downtown, Columbia MO. My wife and I recently moved to Columbia and visited it, looking for a church home. The church building is 101 years old (as of 2015), and is what you would think of when you bring to mind a traditional, Catholic church structure. Physically, it is exceptionally well maintained both outside and inside. The stained glass and interior decoration is magnificent. Unfortunately, there is evidence of "renovation", post Vatican II and the main altar is missing. The freestanding altar is nicely carved, but sadly out of place in such an ornate setting. Church appears to seat about 250-300. Was about 80% full at the 11AM service. There are two English and one Spanish Mass on Sundays. The pews deserve a special note. These are old, hard, wooden pews that do not allow for slouching. I believe that spending an hour in these devices reduces one's stay in purgatory by at least 25 years. Mass started promptly and the procession was well done, with dignity. The readers and all other participants struggled with a terrible sound system, but all did their part with a rehearsed air. The pastor gave an 11 minute homily that was sensible and easy to follow. His general style was one of reverence, with a few exceptions, noted below. Pros: 1. Beautiful church 2. Ample parking on a private lot (rare in the downtown!) 3. Decent homily 4. No chance of dozing in those pews 5. Clearly marked restroom 6. Traditional baptismal font in the narthex 7. Reasonably reverent Mass Cons: 1. No incense 2. LOTS of happy handshaking and "greet your neighbor" 3. Priest wandering around before the homily to greet and point out visitors 4. No pipe organ and an out of tune piano
