    We traveled from Ohio to Boston Children’s to have my sons brain surgery. My mom found this Catholic Church walking distance from BCH on yelp. They welcomed my mom and sister with open arms, prayed for my son, talked to my family for along time and gave us candles to take home. We were told of the many miracles preformed. My son had brain surgery in 2018 and is doing amazing. We had many prayers and the best neurosurgeon in the world but I also believe that this church and our lady helped so much. We don’t know my sons long term outcome but I’m thankful for these past years. If you are a medical family traveling I highly recommend stopping in for mass or some prayers.

    Cried my eyes out front just the sight of this place unfortunately I got to the end of the mess and didn’t get to hear much of the words that were said but I will definitely be back. It’s comparable to Saint Patricks in New York City and it’s extremely exquisite in its architecture.

    Beautiful church. My wife and daughters are visiting Boston and sent these pics from this church. There was an adoration chapel underway.

    Absolutely stunning church with eye-catching architecture. Largest in the surrounding, can be seen from far and is a beauty during the winter snow.

    I always loved this church, I used to go here when I was a college student in Boston. Beautiful interior and exterior. I liked when they would do the Latin mass with the incense. I don’t know if they do that anymore, but it was a wonderful spiritual experience. 🙂

    Visited yday with my friend. The ambuance is peaceful. Lots of decore but yet peaceful. The pews or benches have heat when you kneel yo pray. That was really nice since its freezing cold now. Its quiet, no interference you just pray or sit quietly and leave when you're done. It closes at 5p am told. It opens in the morning. Only con is a peculiar smell you have to get past at the entrance if you're not used to smells. That got me but after a while i got used to the smell. I plan to pass by a few times to quiet my spirit. Ill definitely recommend.

    Beautiful basilica!!! The Redemptorist priests and their staff are always so helpful and kind. Our family has been a part of the basilica, school, and community for many years. They continue to provide the foundation we need to maintain our faith and grow as Catholics. -Thank you

    Correcting my first review. I just saw the unforgivable error I made writing a wrong entry. Truly sorry! I owe you Mother Mary and God a huge apology! I am forever your devotee. 🙏📿🌹 The Shrine I visited for the first time with friends as a pilgrimage and just loved it! Its an absolutely enthralling, beautiful, peaceful place to see. The history, the healing miracles are boundless. I am in awe. Giving thanks to Fr Anthony Michalik for his warm welcome to our group, Amicus Christi, RCFC. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Below is the entry error for the nearby accommodations: A comfy place, clean, just no towel bar on bathroom. Good Bfast served. We were able to use dining as our purpose room for meeting, with 24 hrs coffee. Free parking too. Perfect place minutes away from city.

    A majestic interior!! Some glorious paintings, sculptures and stained glass. Perhaps I could see that some specific areas of deterioration are appearing that can be resolved quickly.
