Rohn Design led a full interior renovation and restoration effort that contributed to this historic church’s designation as a minor basilica by Pope Francis.

​

We designed a cohesive program that included space formation, new sacred art, liturgical furniture and appointments, mosaics, murals, statuary, and interior decoration. The updated plan also addressed structural repairs, created a new gathering space and Reconciliation Room, and improved accessibility to the chapel and sacristy.

​

A carved marble altar housing relics of saints now anchors the sanctuary, surrounded by restored murals, refinished furnishings, and custom additions such as a tabernacle stand, ambo, font, crucifixion scene, and statues of the Holy Family. Marian devotion is honored through a mosaic of Our Lady of Perpetual Help and intricate inscriptions encircling the dome.
