Beautiful, just beautiful!

From the outside it reminds me of Epiphany in Georgia. http://www.byzantines.net/epiphany/temple.htm

However, the inside here is just awesome. Such love of our God!

I've been there. The pictures are beautiful, but they don't really communicate what it's like to be there.

Holy Trinity was designed by the renown architect Louis Sullivan, the Father of the Modern Skyscraper, and built with donations from Nicholas II of Russia.

Didn't there used t be an MP parish in Chciago a long time ago? Is it still in operation but under another jurisidiction?

Also, someone should post some photos of the ROCOR cathedral in Des Plains?

Nothing like a really Eastern looking Orthodox Church, at least for me. I love it is an understatement.
