The Baltimore Basilica will celebrate the 200th anniversary of its dedication May 31, the same day it will launch perpetual eucharistic adoration. We take a look at the architecture of America’s first cathedral with Duncan Stroik, professor of architecture at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. Father James Boric, basilica rector, also tells us about the inauguration of perpetual eucharistic adoration in the basilica’s undercroft.
