I mentioned last Friday St. Francis de Sales Oratory here, where I recently attended a Solemn High Mass. I don't have any pictures of the Mass itself, but below is a picture of the Oratory itself, a gorgeous church known as the "Cathedral of the South Side." As you can see, it really dominates the city-scape in that part of town. It has an interior to match, of which I unfortunately can't find any pictures.
The Latin Mass apostolate was just recently moved to St. Francis de Sales under the direction of the Institute of Christ the King, whom Archbishop Burke invited to St. Louis for this purpose. The Church itself is in need of many repairs, but the Institute and the Latin Mass community are committed to preserving this great monument of the faith in St. Louis.
