3 Welcome Welcome to the Basilica of Saint Louis, King... the Parish of St. Louis fondly known as the Old Cathedral. The Old Cathedral is one of the most historic buildings in St. Louis with roots dating back to 1764 when St. Louis founders Pierre Laclede and Auguste Chouteau dedicated a parcel of land to the people of St. Louis for religious purposes that was called the "church block". The present building is the fourth church to be erected on the site. Construction began in 1831 and the church was dedicated in It is the oldest building in the City of St. Louis and the only building that remains in the hands of its original owner, the Archdiocese of St. Louis. It has always been a place that welcomes and nurtures people of all faiths, including those of the Jewish faith as evidenced by the Latin and Hebrew inscriptions on the facade of the church.

4 World Meeting of Families Prayer Lord God, by the creation of the first Eve and her spouse, you made marriage and the family the foundation of all human community. By the birth of your Son, Jesus, to the new Eve, Mary, our mother, and her most chaste spouse, Joseph, you radically altered human history. Through this Holy Family you made a path for our salvation. Strengthen the families of this world and impart to them the gifts of the Holy Spirit. May the upcoming World Meeting of Families with the Holy Father serve to give you glory, and bring strength and fortitude to families, who are being assaulted by evil from every direction. May the meeting be a source of light and hope to all the world. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Page 4a The Old Cathedral
