God Bless You all.

So many things going on at this parish! I wish they were closer -- I would visit more often. Saint Carlos' shrine is magnificent. Beautiful grounds and church/chapel layout. Amazing array of saints' relics. Nice selection of gifts and charming gift shop manager.

Never felt like a stranger here. They offer two rites of the sacred liturgy of the Mass here including the Ordinary Form (English) and the Extraordinary Form (Latin). Both are valid, efficacious, and edifying so it merely depends on personal preference. Parking is plentiful and the grounds are very well maintained. Of course when we are here we're visiting with family members so it's always a wonderful celebration of being together while offering sacrifice and praise to God for all He has given us. Definitely be back again. Thank you for reading my review.

Stopped by here for daily Mass during a recent visit to see family. Location was close and…read moreconvenient to our lodging and the schedule fit our itinerary perfectly. Really enjoyed Father's homily and the ambience of the church was prayerful and peaceful. I was here years ago during a special memorial Mass in honor of St Maximilian Kolbe but didn't remember too many details. Loved how the church is pretty much situated in a housing neighborhood giving the environs a quiet feel. There's lots of parking as I imagine on weekends it must get quite crowded. Added joy was that after Mass, Father brought out the Monstrance containing the Blessed Sacrament of our Lord's sacred Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. Stayed for Adoration and confession afterwards. So grateful to Father for offering the sacrament of reconciliation since we missed our usual time during first Saturday due to airline travel. The priest is very young and fervent and we could see he loves Our Lord very much. Hope to stop by in the future if our travels bring us this way again. Mahalo for reading my review.
