Temple Coffee Roasters

Very beautiful church, the chior was excellent. Mass was somewhat revenant other than the strange homily about the priests dog. The priest also came down into the audience during the peace and hugged everyone in the front row. Honestly, the priest seems a bit out of touch and a little weird. I don’t see this guy inspiring vocations to the priesthood. Shame.

I am not a Catholic, I accompanied an 80 year old lady up from her home in Mexico who wished to attend a Catholic church. Many of the local churches said on their Face Book pages, " Closed until Monday" and then a time. I was surprised by the numbers that were closed. Closed during the week yes but Sunday closing for a church is probably a sign of the times. When we left the lady was very happy she had gotten to church as she missed some services. When we walked back to the car she had a spring to her feet and a beaming smile. She said she felt replenished and ready to take on the world. Which made me happy, I was just glad we found a church open on a Sunday but a long way from Yuba City as all those listed said closed!

The Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament in Sacramento, California is a stunning example of neo-Renaissance architecture. On a beautiful day, the cathedral's white marble exterior gleams in the sunlight, and its twin towers soar against the blue sky. The cathedral's most striking feature is its massive dome, which is topped by a golden cross. The dome is flanked by two smaller domes, and the entire structure is topped by a series of ornamental pinnacles and spires. The cathedral's facade is also richly decorated, with a large central portico and two smaller side porticoes. The porticoes are supported by Corinthian columns, and the entablature above is decorated with a relief of the Last Supper. The cathedral was built in the late 19th century, during a time of great growth and prosperity for Sacramento. The city was the capital of the California Gold Rush, and it was attracting people from all over the world. The cathedral was built to serve the growing Catholic population of the city, and it quickly became one of Sacramento's most iconic landmarks.

What a beautiful cathedral! When you walk in, it only takes a moment to realize how much detail is in everything! From the ceiling paintings, to the sculptures, to the woodworking. It was awe inspiring. It’s in a great location that’s easy to get to (there’s a streetcar that stops right outside) and it’s definitely worth the visit if you love architecture!

The light is absolutely beautiful, the geometric construction is also outstanding, how can't a cathedral be so gorgeous. It's a place that only with natural light is calmly hypnotic, if you go to a place looking for peace, you'll find it here with the Blessed Sacrament. The only thing is the acoustic, I seat back at the last row and I couldn't understand the words, is so majestic.
