To raise awareness about the fundraising campaign, the Basilica transformed a Milwaukee bus stop with replicas of artwork found in the Basilica. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article on that here.
I finally had a chance to stop by the Basilica's bus stop -- pictures below. The bus stop roof is in the image of the Basilica's dome and the bus stop features stained glass window images and a pew.
The bus stop is pretty neat. Take a look if you're in the Milwaukee area.
PS Super happy to be blogging again... Glad Matt welcomed me back into the BC fold. I am now with the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty -- WILL is a nonprofit public interest law firm. Professor John McAdams' lawsuit against Marquette University is perhaps one of WILL's most recent well-known cases.
PPS On a somewhat related note, if you've never seen the Vatican's 3D rendition of the Sistine Chapel, I highly recommend it. Link here.

That's awesome! When my wife and I visited Milwaukee several years ago, I had never heard of this basilica before seeing it from the highway. I insisted we stop and see inside and was grateful we did. Absolutely stunning. I hope its capital campaign is a huge success!
