Proclaimed a Basilica by the sainted Pope John Paul II in 1998.

*Red-Letter Days are celebrated at major and minor Basilicas, one of which is our very own Little Flower Basilica. The faithful who devoutly attend Mass at Little Flower Basilica may obtain a plenary indulgence under the conditions that they also make sacramental confession, receive Eucharistic Communion during the Mass, and pray for the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff (Pope Francis).

For August, Pope Francis’ intention is for political leaders: that they be at the service of their own people, working for integral human development and for the common good, especially caring for the poor and those who have lost their jobs.
