Church #85 - Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, North Providence




I remember this church from my April walking tour. I was here about an hour before the start of Mass, with almost nobody around, and it was a wonderful place to sit and pray for a few minutes. The stained glass windows make the interior very colorful.




I came back for the 10am Mass yesterday. The organist played beautifully before Mass as people were coming in, setting a very prayerful tone. The Mass featured a choir in the balcony who I thought did a great job, especially with the psalm. Someone rings the church's bells at the moment of the consecration, broadcasting what's happening to the surrounding neighborhood. I remember St. Anthony in North Providence, which shares a parish with this church, doing the same thing when I was there earlier this year.
