WOW! This church is HUGE. It is easily seen from Auburn into Lewiston. Once one walks to it, the size of the Church dwarfs even the tallest person. The most ornate stone work is in the front of the building, the original church was made out of Bricks and is attached to the stone church at the back. (Please see photos, it will make sense then.) The beautiful stone work portion has a plaque of the date of completion. The Brick Church at the back has a late 1800 date above the door. It was really nice to walk from Auburn to Lewiston, it got my kid off the video games for a few hours. We even found a little store on the way back to buy drinks and a comic store as we were taking our time and debating if we should go the the memorial park. Good time and I hope to do it again!

A beautiful basilica with high, arched ceilings, lovely intricate stained glass, and warm wood along the walls. There are a large number of Mass times available, some of which are in the main church hall, while others are in a smaller chapel. You should definitely see it if youre near Lewiston.

Just like any other Catholic Church. However the priest does have a very caring attitude. Very friendly. He also has a flair for putting on a show in his entrance.

Ive looked all over for a church that offers the Tridentine Latin Mass, and this beautiful basilica offers the Latin at 8:30 am every Sunday according to their website. The Catholic churches in my area do not offer the sacred and traditional Latin Mass, which, the embrace of traditionalism will be the future of Roman Catholicism come hell or high water. Beautiful place of worship.

All the churches in the Prince of Peace Parish are beautiful, but Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul is my favorite and has a significant place in our lives. Our convalidation was done there.

Wow!An impressive church indeed! I didnt look up the definition of Basilica but I imagine it means Grand Church.The priest was pretty modern without the singing of the scriptures like most do, and his mass was more on the current side.An amazing place for a wedding.
