There is a very serene courtyard to the right with benches. I guess you could call it a meditation area. The church is huge and spectacular. There is stained glass which adorns either side of the main sanctuary of this Church, seven on either side. Additionally, there is one piece of stained glass, in the shape of a cross on the rear facade (front of building). The church offers a great link from their main web page to look at the stained glass and learn about their "story".
Rather than match up my pictures with the text from the page, it is recommended to visit the page itself and read about the religious significance of the glass. The website can be found here --> (

The church is also a pioneer is religious technology and has paved the way for remote broadcasting. In 1947, the first telecast of a Catholic Mass was broadcast from Christ the King Church over WFIL-TV. In June 2000, the first Nuptial Mass was broadcast live over the Internet from the Parish.
