Field Trip #2: Belleville Area

Our second architectural tour took us to four recently/currently constructed churches in the St. Louis metro east area - all parishes in our diocese.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Immaculate Conception in Columbia is a massive construction effort now underway.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Holy Trinity in Fairview Heights is another very large church, recently consecrated.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Corpus Christi in Shiloh is a smaller parish church, dedicated this year



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

St. Clare O'Fallon, visible from I-64 at Green Mount Road, takes major design cues from the Basilica of St. Clare in Assisi, Italy
