Ventured inside during lightup night 2015 for the first time. Literally awe struck with the magnificence of the place. The intricate stone work leading up to the sculpeted wood ceiling was unique and beautiful. I loved the huge clamshell doors behind the altar and then turning around to see the huge authentic pipe organ in the balcony of the church. Dare I say more beautiful than Heinz Chapel.
Unbelievably beautiful church. Very peaceful. Stain glass alone makes it worth a visit.
If you plan on getting married here please ask them what their rules are regarding wedding photography and videography before you book. They have very strict rules here and your hired professionals will have severe limitations on where they can be and what they can do.
Unfortunately I see this kind of thing all too often and the church's reason being that they want to "preserve the sanctity of the ceremony and the religion." Meanwhile guests are taking video and photos with their smart devices throughout the service. If churches, like this one, wanted to preserve the sanctity of the ceremony than their rules should apply to all, not just the people hired by the couple to be there.
Gothic churches are kinda my thing ❤
My family has attended this church since the 1990's. It has always provided biblical services, teaching, and outreach programs. The members of this church are so welcoming and friendly! I would recommend this church to anyone. The building itself is stunning; the sanctuary has one-of-a-kind stained glass windows and a grand pipe organ. A great place to worship.
