This church is on the small side, with the altar stuck way out in the middle of the sanctuary and surrounded by pews on all four sides. It's very colorful due to its red and blue tinted windows. Its tabernacle is in a little side chapel room with a prayer intention book. There's tons of seating up in the balcony, including a big cry room, presumably to make up for the relatively small main floor. The parish seems pretty active based on its bulletin and the amount of groups and events advertised in the back.
St. Robert Bellarmine is one of the many, many well known saints that I know almost nothing about. He was an Italian Jesuit and Cardinal in the 16th and 17th centuries. He was a very important intellectual figure in his day, to the point of being named a Doctor of the Church, including involvement with Galileo and all the controversy surrounding him.
