I walked here for Saturday evening Mass on Halloween, in perfect fall weather. This is a mission church that shares a parish with Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Providence. It has Saturday Mass in English and Sunday morning Mass in Spanish. I remember visiting this church about an hour before its Saturday vigil Mass back in April, and having a very nice conversation with a woman who was there early to pray.
The church has a couple of nice stained glass windows on either side of the altar area. I couldn't tell if they were lit up artificially or by the light from outside. There are rose windows at the front and back, and (of course) a big St. Anthony statue. The pews still have the old-school hat hooks on them. The Mass concluded with the Anima Christi prayer after Communion. I met
the pastor afterward, as well as a couple of the parishioners, and they
were extremely warm and friendly.
