"Simon of Cyrene carries the cross."

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish Church

In Dec. 30, 1954, the cornerstone for the church was blessed by Archbishop Vagnozzi. This church is favored for weddings, with its large, ornate array of stained glass windows, the church is romantic as it is serene.


The church's grandiosity


In baroque-like fashion


The long aisle you want to walk someday,
if you're the bride.

A station of the cross on a pillar


Beautiful stained glasses, to die for

In contrast

"Veronica wipes the face of Jesus."
