There was a lot to see in this beautiful church. I may have to go back to capture what I missed. But for now, here are a few highlights that I really loved....
Madonna of the Roses

| Angels with the instruments of the crucifixion. Much like Michelangelo's statue of Christ the Redeemer, this seems to capture a joyfulness in the suffering of the crucifixion. |
Tomb of St. Monica, mother of St. Augustine, patroness of parents who are disappointed in their children....and just patroness of parents :)
The beautiful dome has undergone many reconstructions.
Someone besides the Holy Spirit up there!
Virgin of Childbirth.
All expectant mothers or those trying to conceive, come pray to Her.
