I live about 15 miles from the shrine. It is a beautiful piece of property that is currently a shell of its former self (so I’m told...I didn’t grow up in this area). The colliseum is very unusual in that it contains multiple altars that at one time they had simultaneous masses. It can seat 6,000 people inside the circular structure. Biggest recent “scandal” is the sale of the retreat center to a Buddhist community. Supposedly many catholic groups offered to buy the property from the Jesuits but they sold it to the Buddhists instead. http://www.martyrshrine.org/pages/scrapbook.html
This really got sold to Budhists?
Shameful
