The Papal document, Domus Ecclesiae, spells out the specific privileges granted to a Minor Basilica. The most important of these is the Plenary Indulgence, which the faithful may receive who devoutly visit the basilica and participate in any sacred rite “or at least recite the Lord’s Prayer and the profession of faith.”
