St Jude’s Shrine

I went to preschool and kindergarden here then returned to get my first communion and confirmation. I 20 years later I still have nothing but great stories and positive experiences to share. I loved all my catechism teachers and the staff.
I have only ever attended English mass and always loved it. The choir is run by Brother Mark and they are absolutely amazing. This is a great place to worship and is an incredible community to be a part of.
The only reason I gave 3 stars is because of the overall experience. The negative points are no fault of St. Jude itself but of the people who attend it. It’s usually packed and no one knows how to drive or park. After mass people like to stand around and chat in the parking lot while their 15 kids run around unsupervised. Like I said, not St. Jude’s fault but I’m sure it’s just a cultural thing.

I have been going to this church for 20+ yrs I did my first communion here. My gente can be pretty rude, talking out loud, and double parking so I go to the 7 am English mass it’s early but the people are nicer, also right under the stain glass window of the Virgen de Guadalupe there is a bullet hole right under her robe. That bullet hole has been there for more than 20+ yrs I pointed it out to the father at that time when I was in Sunday school, I was 8! I’m 38 now!

Baptized, communion-​ized at this Catholic Church. Sunday Spanish mass gets jam packed and some of my gente are pretty rude bc they shove to try to get in for a good spot so I’ve moved to English mass. English mass is much better — the people are friendly, and the Asian choir is angelic. When you are running late you can sit upstairs with the choir but when kneeling prepare to hurt bc they are missing bench to kneel. Overall arrive a few minutes on time to get street parking. I usually park two blocks down since the church parking is small.
