Great church. Lots of visitors pass through and the staff and father are very accommodating. Location is right off freeway and is located very close to center of atlanta. Church validates parking for church goers. Security guard on site is friendly and has been working at church more than 15 years. 2 bathrooms for parish use. Beautiful building outside and in, currently trying to fund money to repair the church spires it seems. The stainglass is beautiful as well.
This is a welcoming Catholic church in downtown Atlanta. Although a visitor, we attend Mass here when we travel to, or even through, Atlanta. I was surprised to see a diverse crowd for a Friday noon Mass. I typically park in a paid lot nearby because we will be eating somewhere after Mass, and I don't want to take up their limited parking. And a note to that, I say park where there is an "arm." Avoid surface lots that might boot your car even if you pay.
Joined this parish to participate in Veneration on Good Friday. The church is absolutely beautiful. Parking was too it's right behind the Parish and was validated upon conclusion of mass. The choir made made that much more special. The accapella hymns, the violin, guitar and piano were just so special. My daughter and I were visiting for the night and felt right at home. Happy Easter and thank you for making such a solemn day so special and memorable.
Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is located in Buckhead Peachtree City of Atlanta, Georgia. It’s in walking distance of Civic Center Marta Train. I attended a Monday afternoon mass, which lasted for 30 minutes. The service was held in the smaller part of the church with few parishioners. I was a bit tired from the commute but it was uplifting to be actually in the church in fellowship with others.
Ushers and usherettes will accomodate you to your designated seat, 6 ft. apart is strictly observed but you can seat beside your friend or family in a row assigned just for you. Ambiance is really peaceful and the church is clean ans well preserved. Parking gets occupied fast, but there's a pay parking located at the back of the church and your ticket will be validated after the mass. God Bless.
