I haven't attended a Mass here in several years, so take this with a grain of salt. It's a spectacle. If you walk in during the homily, there might be a guy running around, waving his arms,…

I'm a Catholic that believes going to mass shouldn't be a boring, blah blah blah, recite away, kneel up/down experience... You should walk out feeling refreshed, and part of your community, and closer…

While I don't belong to this church my brother does, it has given him such a great community, and he has started to get really involved. Its really been a blessing for him.

I feel sort of weird reviewing a church, but being a Catholic who is sort of picky about where she will attend her masses at when she does attend, I figured I would do my theological duty and report…

Beautiful beyond words. A colorful and uplifting interior and an austere and impressive exterior, this church is 100% amazing. From the outside, I half expected crazy and old-fashioned stone gargoyles…

Richard M. Daley attends services here, know that going in. You start mass by hugging the people around you and trying to recognize the strengths that the people around you bring to the community.…

First of all, let me preface my review by pointing out that I am not Catholic, in fact, I am Jewish. My wife, however, is Catholic, and OSP is her church of choice. About a month before we got engaged,…

Now it may seem odd for me to be Yelping a church but WOW!!! I had trouble focusing on the wedding ceremony because of all of the beautiful artwork. From the fine details in wood work and paint to the…

I'm not Catholic, but this house is cool. Been to a few weddings here, and the interior is great: humble but breathtaking. One heck of a block party each year to boot.

I first visited OSP based off of the fun I had at the Block Party. I figured any church that could throw a party that fun, would understand me. I have never been disappointed. It is a beautiful…

OSP is a great example of what I feel a Catholic community should be. Mass always begins with introducing yourself to the people sitting around you. Whether you are a first-time visitor, or a regular…

Hands down the best Church in Chicago. I love it here! The restorations are beautiful, and the outer facade is gorgeous. On top of looking great, Mass is great here, and the Church offers plenty of…

This is well worth a tourist stop if you are visiting the Sears Tower or other points in the west Loop. Not only is it the oldest church in Chicago, but it has been lovingly restored, not to its…

I have always enjoyed mass at OSP. The preaching is poignant and relevant for a modern congregration. Since the restoration in the late 90s/early 2000s, I think this may be the most beautiful church…

Located in the West Loop, this is Chicago's oldest church building dating from 1854. Built with a Romanesque Revival style, its octagonal towers are topped with different spires. Every summer the…
