I already favor Cue over Lou. Blessed Sacrament KCMO is my favorite as well (although I have some partiality to St. Vincent de Paul for all it's architectural ruggedness and strength, if not for any balance or fine finish).
I wish I'd seen the interior of Blessed Sacrament before it was sold off to the heretics--must content myself with photos from This Far by Faith.
On the other hand, one of the cooler things about St. Vincent de Paul is actually a new addition: the SSPX has found a handsome pair of six-seat choir stalls, which really give the choir/sanctuary an uncommon feel. Slip in sometime you're home (as I do on occasion) and check it out.
I assume you've seen my blog photo tour--feel free to copy over any pictures you'd like, in the unlikely event that you don't come up with better ones. Also check out, if you haven't already, Rome of the West, Mark Abeln's blog. He's got some great stuff on St. Louis that puts us poor Kansas Citians to shame.
BTW, you might turn word verification on for your comment boxes if you don't want offensive spam. Good luck with the project, guys, but don't neglect your studies.
Surely Lou is joking about St. Therese (Parkville). As modern churches go, it is not as awful as some (many) but certainly, one could think of a more beautiful church - even on this side of the state. How about Our Lady of Sorrows - THAT is a beautiful church and nearly all intact. Oh well, my two cents anyhow. Any response from Lou?
Follow curmudgeon's advice fellas and get a copy of This Far by Faith, by (I think) Father Michael Coleman, the diocesan archivist. Putting some info from that book with future posts about differnt diocesan structures will make for great reading. I hear that copies can be had from the chancery for about $50.00. I am hoping for one for Father's Day.
P.S. Looking forward to your content.
