Wheelchair Accessibility
Our church building is limited for handicap accessibility. We have three exterior entrances with ramps, but only the door off the main parking lot has an automatic push button for wheelchairs. The rest of our doors would need a person to open the door for a wheelchair to go through.

Cathedral Prayer Vigils

All Souls Memorial Candle

Six-day candles are available now and throughout all the month of November as we join with the Church and pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. You are invited to remember especially your beloved deceased with an All Souls Memorial Candle.

These candles burn at the All Souls Altar on the Race Street side of the Basilica, starting November 2, and remind us to prayer for those who have died.

A fifteen-dollar donation is requested for each candle. Your prayer request for your loved one will be placed on the candle. You can complete the information below and place it along with your donation in the collection basket, or drop it off at the office. You may also email the information and mail in a check to:

TOUR THE CATHEDRAL BASILICA

A MESSAGE FROM FATHER DENNIS GILL

Welcome to the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, the mother church of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Francis Patrick Kenrick initiated the building of this magnificent Church in 1846. It was continued through the tenure of Saint John Neumann and completed in 1864 by Bishop (later Archbishop) Wood. You are invited to not only learn more about our Cathedral Basilica through this website but also to join us for liturgy, for private prayers and for a tour of our imposing Basilica.
