My family and I go to St Josephs Oratory every year so we can pray for a safe year. I'm not much for churches but I love this one because it is so big and beautiful. I took pictures to share with everyone too. :)
I know a lot of them look "spotty" but it's because it was dark inside and I tried fixing them up so you could see them. We were in a rush so there aren't many pictures. A lot of them were taken while we were driving away. Lol. Okay well here they are:
This is the big statue that is at the front of the church

This is inside the big room where everyone can light candles for themselves and their loved ones. I always liked this one best, it is at center of the room and has the most candles you can light.

These are the canes of all the handicap or hurt people who didn't need them anymore. Someone told me the story of them a long time ago but I forget it now. There are like 4 more walls of these in the same room
