Our history spans from 1850 with Irish/German immigrants who eventually constructed a "Shanty Church" built of lumber from trees cut a couple blocks away. Today on the same location, we worship in a glorious basilica. In between that time, the first Franciscan friars to come to this region of the United States built a proper wood church and christened her, Saint Mary of the Angels. Enjoy the story of the transformation of this holy place to an international pilgrimage destination. May you be transformed as well.
