    A place of quiet peace and reflection. Beautiful decoration. This an active church with daily Mass and should be respected as such. But all very welcome.

    A wonderful place for peace and reflection

    Very safe inside and out. Beautiful church itself,you can feel the peace just sitting there. Several side altars with some well and less known saints. Parking lot behind ,but also quick to walk there. Lovely mass card variety on offer,as well as other cards for all occasions. Very friendly people working there and the visitors.
