Things to do in Connecticut, United States: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites
Connecticut is a study in attraction and contrast. In one small state, you’ll find miles of sandy oceanfront shoreline, acres of forested hiking trails, and world-class museums, art and theater. Here family-friendly adventure parks and aquariums are just minutes from dynamic casino resorts and quaint, historic small towns — offering experiences that range from culinary to cultural, luxurious to laid-back. It’s the perfect place to unwind and recharge, all at the same time.

Kids love Fellowship- the hour AFTER church service ends for its “heavenly” donuts; adults enjoy the “Academy” hour shortly after service for a weekly lecture on a number of different topics; families love Wednesday nights at FPC for Bible study and stories and a communal dinner... I love going to this church, for the people who call it their second home and the warm welcome one receives as they walk in the door each Sunday. Led by two ordained ministers with young families of their own, Sean Miller and Andre Castillo, go out of their way to open their hearts and share their love of faith and God. Come one Sunday! I’ll bet you’ll come again! - Bonnie in Connecticut!

Reviewed By redeco - Warren, United States
The original Cathedral of St. Joseph was devastated by fire in 1956. But, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the new ultra-modern structure created as a replacement, was dedicated in 1962. The design firm was Eggers and Higgins of New York. The soaring vault is flooded with colored light from the hundreds of stained glass windows throughout the cathedral. No expense appears to have been spared in the construction of this church. The windows were designed by Jean Barillet of Paris, and each stands 67 feet high and 13 and a half feet wide. Traditional new and old testament subjects are depicted in the windows which sparkle like jewels in the sunlight. I could go on and on - the physical beauty of this structure is a testament to the faith and vision of its parishioners. Stop in and sit; soak in the quiet; the solemn atmosphere if this beautiful church. Enjoy.
