We attended my niece's wedding and the Basilica still as beautiful as ever. My first time visit was in 1955. I remembered the towering steps and the huge doors. I recommend for all to visit! Enjoy!

What a beautiful Catholic Church. I've always wanted to see & visited which I finally did last Saturday. I was so intrigued & felt my Lord Jesus Christ in the Church. This Church has alot of History about Jesus that led to His Crucifixion & died on the Cross ✝️ for our sins. I recommend anyone to go & see the Church yourself & feel the Love & Holy Spirit inside the Church!

Extremely beautiful church with a great history. Highly recommend checking out the tours that the secular order puts on, great and informative tour. Everyone that can should donate to the church’s restorative fund.

Beautiful shrine for Saint Therese the Little Flower. Be sure to see the painting her youngest sister painted in her honor for her beatification. The beautiful painting is massive and almost floor-to-ceiling. It's located in the basement of the church.

It's a beautiful basilica in San Antonio named after St. Teresa of Lisieux of France. A side chapel dedicated to her is worth visiting. The altar is beautiful and it's spectacular around the Christmas time with all …
