The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Little Flower also called Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St. Thérèse Church is a historic Roman Catholic church, located in San Antonio, Texas, in the United States. The church is distinguished as one of 84 in the United States (and one of only four in the state of Texas) bearing the papal designation of "minor basilica."

Our high school class of 1974 attended mass here for our annual Christmas reunion. This is a beautiful basilica built in 1925; it is one of the gems of San Antonio. You get a sense of spirituality...

This is most definitely the best place to be if you want to feel the presence of Jesus I love going to the church not only for confession but also just to pay a visit,love the old communion rails the way all churches used to be like when the priest was the only one to give communion which I miss in all churches I always felt a closeness when I would receive communion given by a priest to God I also like that they have big christ crucified on the right side of the church where you can kneel before Christ and feel that closeness once again .
