The windows here are stunning. While St. Joseph is scarcely mentioned in the Scriptures, the windows beautifully capture his important and powerful role in the Holy Family. Beyond highlighting his significance, the windows are impressive works of art. The scriptural citations for the windows really connect the dots if there is uncertainty as to what is depicted. I was particularly moved by the Coronation of Joseph, as I’ve never seen that image (or heard of this event) before. The verse at the bottom though, has it all make sense. The crucifix is off centered which was a little distracting for me, but I was so drawn to the windows so it wasn’t too difficult to pray.

This is a great church. The parking was on the street and a private lot so if you're going to a packed mass get there early. I loved the architecture, stained glass, and stations of the cross. They are all beautifully done. The pews are comfortable and so are the kneelers.

They certainly did a great job with “wreckovating” this Church. Thank you Vatican Council II. Two stars only because the exterior of the Church managed to maintain its traditional beauty. Catholicism deserves better. Visited this Church on 01.26.2023 (From Florida).

This historic cathedral features German-designed stained glass and a magnificent crucifix which must be seen in person to truly appreciate!

Beautiful Catholic Church both inside and out. When I was there the pipe organist was practicing and sounded fantastic.
