What a wonderful, lovely place. I enjoy the subtle humor and educated research of the priests, and as one dedicated to compassion, care, and lifting up of God's suffering children, you do well in the episcopal denomination, which strives to …

This church is beautiful inside and out! Too bad you have to be Episcopal to be married here, because this Lutheran wants her wedding here. The altar is absolutely stunning! The organ is incredible! The size of the church is massive as well and through a visit with my University, I learned about what a Cloister is and why they have one. It's quiet interesting and I'm glad our class got to see everything they have to offer. The architecture is Gothic in style, which makes the entire church feel airy, large, and beautiful.

Honesty I went to this church because I really needed someone to talk to, I was experiencing anxiety really bad was going through a lot and felt like I was going to loose my mind and die. I thought this church could help me and would pray for me ,well I waited for a while untill the priest came and I was trying to explain to him what I was going through, but this priest walks me outside and gives me 25.00 and I told him I didn't want the money he tells me to take it and put it toward one of my bills and sent me on my way, I was so hurt I never thought that someone who is supposed to be a man of God would ever turn me away. I cried like a baby and that day God showed me that there are people that claim to be his servants but really they are not . I went to a Catholic church after that scared and broken and hurt and lost and full of fear I felt the devil had a grip on me, and I needed someone to help me and pray over me and I thank the priest at Saint Frances Catholic church for taking the time to listen to me and talked with me and prayed for me. So I'm very sceptical about these priests in these churches today, I haven't been to church in a while, I have had 2 bad experiences in churches, but I can tell you I have a very close relationship with my God and I read my bible readings and pray everyday and night it took me 3 month's to get better I just read my bible even though I couldn't understand anything, I was that close to loosing my mind and I cried and prayed constantly even though I couldn't understand anything and lost my way to pray, I still continued after 3 month's I started understanding a little at a time, today I'm so much better. God is awsome and he healed me all on his own, when I say God can do amazing thing's I'm a living testimony of it. I'll never set foot in this church ever again, and that priest will answer to God almighty along with all these other one's that claim to be his servants and portraying them selves as priest's. There are many or are wolves in sheeps clothing.

From the first time I've walked into this church approx 5+yrs ago; the church/members have went above & beyond the scope of helping me while at the same time sharing much needed prayers & information about God. Thank you for helping me.

Attended their Sunday services in this iconic and historic church. It was designed by Philip Frohman, the same architect of the National Cathedral in Washington DC.
