Heavenly music

What a beautiful shire to Our Holy Mother. Moving masses . . . the experiences have touched my soul. Wish for such a church home in Houston . . . if you are Catholic and want to expericene a truly inspired Mass, don't miss Mary Queen of the Universe. You will so enjoy the choir and the Organist. Miracle workers. Some of the most beautiful music I have ever experienced in the Catholic Church. A do no miss . . .

Breathtaking...

I've been in love with this church since I was 10. It's my dream to get married in it. From the re-enactment of The Nacimiento to the Quiet Room, makes you feel at peace. The Candles&the prayer books guide you to tranquility. But the moment you lay eyes on the inside; the isle, crucifix, the statue of The Virgin Mary as well as the pearl white stage; the relevance to the core of its creation, not the beauty, reminds you of all your blessings& brings out some forgotten humility.God willing, with in the following year or two, my prayer will be answered. My fiance seems to have fallen for this church too ;)
