40 Days, 40 Churches

Day 2: The Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Boston MA

This is, I think, the closest Catholic church to my office. I'd always meant to go take a look at it, but didn't do so until it came up as a location for geocaching (the spires make a good surveying benchmark, apparently). So I wound up taking the short walk on a sunny fall afternoon.

It was well worth it, both for the building and the view of the city from Mission Hill. On the day I went up I also caught part of choir practice, which was a nice bonus.
