The Pilgrim Center is the large building next to the Shrine Church, and it is there to welcome all pilgrims to learn more about Blessed Stanley Rother. We encourage all to visit the wonderful Blessed Stanley Rother Museum. Designed by Exhibit Concepts (the same firm who designed the OKC bombing memorial museum), the museum will walk you through the life and mission of Blessed Stanley Rother from his early childhood in Okarche, OK to his death in Santiago Atitlan. Finally, the museum will lead you into our beautiful Gift Shop. There, you can browse are amazing selection of art, books, statues, rosaries, and many other great religious gifts.
The Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine is now the largest Catholic church in the entire state of Oklahoma.

The Church is a blend of european baroque and spanish colonal styles. Make sure to save some time to pray in the chapel where the remains of Blessed Stanley Rother is laid to rest in the altar!
