Hidden in an area of Downtown Brooklyn between the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges is a beautiful edifice which unfortunately for many remains an unknown. Follow me as I enter The Cathedral Basilica of St. James. Open the simple wooden doors,enter into the modest vestibule, silently push open the inside doors and step into an awe-inspiring church. In its simplicity, the Cathedral of St. James is magnificent. Sunlight blazes through the amazing stained glass windows and we are immediately inspired by their beauty and the story they each tell. We slowly walk toward the main altar and a sense of true spirituality overcomes us. Mass begins and we listen to the heavenly notes emitting from the cathedral's glorious organ. I watch the parishioners file up to receive the Eucharist, and the fellowship of the congregation moves me. This is a beautiful church both structurally and may I say, emotionally. I find great solace within its walls. Perhaps others will too.
