Description
It is a titular church, since February 1965 when Maurice Roy became its first Cardinal-Priest. Patrick D'Rozario has held the title since 2016.[1] It was made a parish church, served by the Congregation of Priests of the Most Holy Sacrament, by Pope Pius XII.[2] The Redemptorist Generalate is adjacent.
The church was in close proximity to the Canadian embassy, until the embassy re-located in 2007. Initially, the church was named Nostra Signora del Santissimo Sacramento (Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament). but was re-consecrated in 1962.
The church was designed around 1950 by Bruno Apollini Ghetti. The facade mosaic is by Marko Ivan Rupnik. There is a small raccoon in the bottom right hand corner. The church contains a high altar designed by Francesco Nagni, ceramic decorations (including a fine crucifix) by Angelo Biancini. Biancini's terracotta ambo has panels depicting The Last Supper and the Madonna and Child. The stained glass windows are by János Hajnal and Marcello Avenali.
