Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel, Thomas Aquinas College

Ron — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 16:42:26 +0000

“From its inception, the vision for Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel has been predicated upon four distinguishing marks: beauty, which disposes us to what is true and good; grandeur, which lifts the mind to contemplate God’s transcendence; permanence, which reminds us that God’s word is everlasting; and tradition, which connects us to the wisdom of the past.”

That quote was taken from a comprehensive description of the Chapel found here.

Also known as “The Queen of the Missions.” This was the 10th of 21 Franciscan missions that shaped much of the history of California. I have created 6 panos of this beautiful Mission see all of them here.

Here is one of two new panoramas that I made of St. Rose Church. The interior was recently repainted so I returned to document the new look. Be sure to visit the St. Rose page to see both panos and find links to the previous tour so that you can compare for yourself the old and the new.

St. Lawrence Catholic Church, Cincinnati

St. Lawrence Church has an impressive Gothic edifice with three steeples dominating the skyline of Price Hill. The church was dedicated in 1894. I was particularly impressed by the stained glass windows. See some detail pictures of those on the St. Lawrence page in the Prayer Places section.

All Saints Church, Walton, Kentucky

Ron — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 03:34:55 +0000

The people of All Saints Parish wanted to create a building in which the sacred is evident and that is modest and simple yet beautiful. They hired design architect Duncan Stroik, whose firm specializes in ecclesiastical design, to help them achieve their goal. Not only did they succeed in their goal but also have proven “it is still possible to build a beautiful church in an ordinary parish with a limited budget.” See all the panoramas here.

Angel's View of the Choir Loft

Slightly different viewpoint featured in this pano. I think it works well in this situation though. Be sure to visit the Old St. Mary’s page in the “Prayer Places” tab at the top of the page to see a lot more detail photos from this beautiful church.

Thomas Aquinas College, California

Ron — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 20:39:58 +0000

A small Catholic college in Santa Paula, California that uses the “Great Books” curriculum. There is a new chapel that was just nearing completion when these panos were made. It has since been finished. The college’s website has a nice photo essay explaining all about the chapel which can be seen here.
