Wow! I never knew all this stuff about Sacred Heart Cathedral… to be honest I didn’t even know it was a real cathedral! Great article! And awesome pictures!

We are blessed with such beautiful churches with magnificent stained glass masterpieces.

Truly beautiful and I would love to see the inside. If I get back to Raleigh in the future, I will make a point to visit.

Yes, I have been to both Christ Church and Good Shepherd (but not FBC) and both are very beautiful churches indeed.

Brandon and Lanzki — Thanks for your comments! Yes, SHC is indeed a beautiful ecclesiatical space. Its restoration was the result of the efforts of former rectors Msgrs. Tim O’Connor and Jerry Sherba. If you appreciate church art and architecture, be sure to visit nearby Church of the Good Shepherd, First Baptist and Christ Church. The interior of Christ Church is particularly awesome!

SHC is really beautiful. Been a parishioner for 7 years and still love it. Msgr. Jerry Sherba will be truly missed! (He’s still here in Raleigh, though…..it’s just different when you see him in church!)

I really enjoyed reading this. I have been a parishioner at SHC for over two years now but I enjoyed reading more about its history that I did not know. I visited several parishes when moving to Raleigh but Sacred Heart was the only one I truly felt “at home” in.
