LOL! Well, we don’t want that. Why don’t you just send a picture without the name and location. And besides, I am only 16, like I am going to go out and hunt you down. Or should I? LOL! God be with you!

Hey OutinChgoburbs, by the way, I am guessing you live out in a Chicago suburb? LOL! Catchy name. I think it would be a great name for a parish Church! Blessings.
 
Well, of course I live in a Chicago suburb. But look on the map. See how many Chicago suburbs there are?

I wasn’t afraid you were going to hurt me. I just enjoy anonymity.😃

This is a picture from before they put in carpet and stuff, but it looks basically the same now.
 
Pax vobiscum!

I don’t like that modern design. I especially don’t like the table for an altar since that was one of the very first things the Protestants did when they took over churches.

Here is the church I normally attend, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary in Portland, OR.

I completely agree. I don’t like my parish much.

Kleary, consider yourself lucky 🙂

Lady Chapel

By the way, my own parish has been the inspiration for my signature!
 
I just love the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. I’ve been going there for the 5:30 daily Mass for almost 30 years off and on. It’s truly my spiritual home, in spite of the fact that it’s not really my parish.

Here’s a photo of the back of my parish (couldn’t find any from the inside of the Church…too bad because it’s stunning):

This is a replica of the Pieta which is brand new and is a shrine to the Sanctity of Life. Under the Altar it rests on is a headstone in honor of the unborn. (Our local Knights of Colombus gave it to the church):

St. Anthony’s Parish, Mount Shasta, California, a parish where I have many friends, although I don’t live there. It was renovated several years ago and it is a significant improvement over the old flagstone “high altar” and fake marble. Note that the tabernacle is still in the center.

St. Boniface Church in Sublimity, Oregon, is one of the most beautiful little churches in the state. It’s not my home parish, but I used to attend Mass there often.
