More information is available on the church website. Designed 60 years before Vatican II era, this beautiful house of worship is situated "ad orientum", so that the rising sun (typeology of Christ's resurrection) enters the rose window at the narthex and shines on the holy altar where His Sacrifice is re-presented. The interior is filled with architectural elements commensurate with orientating the human senses to the contemplation of God and the Holy Trinity. The marbled carved altar shows the last Supper in relief and the figures are exquisitely sculpted. There are many liturgies throughout the week, multiple Mass and confession times and the community parish is open, welcoming and thriving as testament to the pastoral excellence of the Franciscan friars in residence here. Will definitely return soon on my next trip. You should also visit here if you're searching for peace, healing , and comfort in these troubled times. Mahalo for reading my review.

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.
