“Ash Wednesday”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 20, 2013

The church is quite old and lovely. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many people attend the Ash Wednesday services at lunchtime. I'm not sure who was leading the service

“Beautiful Church!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2013

This is a beautiful church with gorgeous stained glass windows. For those of us who work downtown, they have a noon Mass on holy days that takes about 45 minutes (so you can go over your lunch hour).

“Milwaukee Cathedral”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

While a little staid on the outside, the interior is beautiful. It has a very modern central cross over the altar. The seating arrangements are flexible which can be a plus. THe acoustics are a little echo-y but still very good.

“Inspriational”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 23, 2012

I have season tickets to the MSO Pops Concerts. Before attending concerts, I always attend the 4:30 Saturday Mass. The music is very professional and fills the church. They have extraordinary priests that give thoughtful inspiring homilies. The Church is beautiful and not modern. A lot like the Church I attended many years ago as a youth. I especially enjoy...

This is in the downtown area and is small and beautiful. Has a warm and cozy feeling for you to enjoy while saying a prayer or two.
