It was so refreshing to see the church that I once served as an altar boy and where I accelerated my faith as a Roman Catholic from 1964 - 1969. My visit there was no less than phenomenal! The ambiance and grandeur of the interior was as vibrant as the day I served the holy mass. The exterior did show its age but its architectural beauty was unblemished. This is a must visit if you are interested in exploring the rich history of this church that was reportedly one of the first Catholic Churches that allowed slaves to sit alongside with the white congregation. That history alone makes it a must visit site.

Gorgeous church! The inside is beautifully ornate. You can light a candle for your loved one. There are stained glass windows and decorated designs on the ceiling. There are obviously services when appropriate, but at other times you can walk all the way around the church. Outside, there are many Artist and jazzy bands that will provide much entertainment. The shops and museums are close by and the adjacent park is a lovely place to relax. This is a good place to visit!

Another history rich landmark. Filled with all of the energy of our ancestors. You must visit this landmark. I was lucky enough to be able to go inside with a parish member, as it is not currently open to the public. But is was so amazing.

I rated 5 stars because I’m sure if we had the chance to participate in their jazz mass we’d love it!My husband and I went there to check for ourselves and found out that - yes - the church is closed due to the damages from Ilda hurricane. That was very upsetting! If I had enough money, I’d donate to help them reconstruct the interior of the church. I hope all gets well soon.

Although the church itself was closed during the hour we arrived, we were still able to see the Tomb of the Unknown Slave and read all historical markers.
