I think my friend mentioned that they had remolded? Even if they didn't, the church is warm and welcoming. I was blessed to become a Godmother in this church. Had a great time. The deacon who performed our service was great. The children were super hyper and the deacon had fun with some of the holy water with the kids. Made me smile that religion doesn't have to be so serious all the time. We are allowed to laugh.

The free donuts every Sunday is a nice gesture but wish they would do something healthier like fresh fruit. The Bible does forbid gluttony and donuts every Sunday is not good for anyone especially kids. Yield not to temptation folks. Awesome church, just say no to the donuts.

However, I recently revisited the Carmel Basilica on a Sunday, and like other visitors I was totally put off by the commercialization of this particular church/historical monument. There are a few security guards who stand out front and a ticket booth positioned in a way that you cannot enter the church without paying first. The mission is not open everyday which is odd since it is such a beloved place visited by people around the world. The price of admission is 15.00 per person, five dollars higher per person than other missions which are also open everyday. This is quite pricey. If you arrive during mass you may not enter to look around until after mass! It seems really against the whole concept of all are welcome. Lighting one candle is 5.00! Usually it is just a donation or a dollar or two. The parking lot is small and congested. Personally, I enjoyed San Juan Bautista, which is close to Monterey and Carmel, much better. Friendlier, less expensive and open to all everyday! The setting is beautiful as well, surrounded by fields and beautiful gardens. I highly recommend history buffs stop by San Juan Bautista and other smaller missions.
