Hello, I have been attending new beginnings over the years not steady, but I love the service of…read morePastor Scott. He is a leader, but I had some difficulties with I asked her to help with my grandchildren's Christmas happiness. She denied me. She told me that my grandchildren were unable to seek a toy. We all know that these are hard times right now and how can anyone deny a child a toy for Christmas? I thought this would be something I because why she is such a Christian hearted person her true beliefs are bias. Against certain nationalities and we saw how often happened to be African-Americans so I guess she doesn't understand a grandmother's need for her grandchildren to have a decent Christmas this year since it's her she's spending I do so hope that the Lord has mercy on her soul..

Delightful little church in Lockport, Illinois - far from the maddening crowd. Unlike many other…read morechurches where they have membership of 2,000 or so families and support a church with anywhere from 800 to 1,200 seats ... this one is really a little church deep in the neighborhood. In fact, it sits right next to or across the street from neighborhood homes. This church seats maybe 250 to 350 of the faithful at most. Nice simple furnishings - not as resplendent as others, but much in keeping with the neighborhood and the people. The pastor and sermon when we were there were very nice - the sermon especially as it was short and thoughtful as opposed to being long and just fit into a time slot. Liked this church a lot. There is also a school next door and an activity center, so you know this is a lively and active parish community. We'll be back to enjoy its simple splendor.

I went to school & church here when i was a wee babe, so I'm bias. They've since closed down the…read moreschool but i still make it out to mass every once in a while and I love this church. It's beautiful and old and gaudy, has an old pipe organ perched high in the back balcony, and has become the pillar of what churches are 'supposed' to look like. It's made it so, every time I go into one of those acoustic guitar playing, super modern churches with skylights, my heart aches for this place. Also, i really love that the school was built in a time that "Nailers" would still be considered an acceptable mascot.

The words, "I will go in to the altar of God. To God, the joy of my youth", taken from the Latin Mass came to mind. Of course, this raises the question why there is no Latin Mass in this magnificent house of God. The photographs depict the beauty of this church more than words ever could. This church has a traditional high altar with embedded statues of Saint Joseph and the Blessed Virgin. One could spend hours gazing into the sanctuary at St. Joseph's.

It's just a parking lot. But when we walked in the door, we were blown away. It's a beautiful space! Detailed stained glass windows all around. The stations of the cross were very detailed and nice to look at. Even the details in the ceiling were well thought out. We spent quite a while before, during and after the prayer service just taking it all in. Today, was my son's first visit to a cathedral. He met the Bishop today on his journey to making his Confirmation. He kept talking about the architecture and the lighting. He was impressed too. Their choir was literally music to my ears. They sang so sweetly and I couldn't help but close my eyes at one point to enjoy it. If you have a chance to visit, you should. It was a perfect, spiritual experience.
