New Bedford, Massachusetts: Saint Anthony of Padua Catholic Church

About Saint Anthony of Padua Church in New Bedford, Masschusetts:

One of the most beautiful churches in the U.S. (in our opinion, at least), Saint Anthony of Padua Church evokes a feeling of awe as you see the great detail that has gone in to making this building so inspirational.  It may remind you of some of the beauty we lost due to the excesses of Vatican II (which never really called for such destruction).

The church has Eucharistic Adoration four days each week…you are invited to attend. As they say on their website:

“A thousand years of enjoying human glory is not worth even an hour spent in sweetly communing with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.”
Saint Padre Pio
