St Mary Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows Roman Catholic Church

Going to Mass is so comforting during this challenging time. At St. Mary's all protocol is followed. I have found community, uplifting music, traditional spirituality & thought provoking homilies. Plus they support initiatives to aid the homeless.

What a beautiful and well cared for Catholic Church, in the heart of Kitchener.

The atmosphere here place is truly divine! I've been for few traditional Latin masses and it's magnificent.. the songs, the service, everything is just lovely.. perfect to go for silent personal prayers too!

Beautiful landmark catholic church nestled downtown Kitchener! Always lovely services and ceremonies held in this lovely church!

Beautiful inside.Attended wedding. Pianist was professional. Sang as well.The steps are fairly close to the exit doors which may be a safety issue if people were in a hurry.

Very beautiful Church that makes one want to spend time with God. The programs they provide really do try to bring out the best in the community while sticking towards Jesus's mission.

If you are looking for a quiet and beautiful energy place to pray, this is the place.

The Latin Mass offered here is great. I highly recommend all Catholics in the area to try out this Mass. Do not worry about the Latin, the homily is in English and they give out Latin-English Missals for you to follow along. If you are planning to attend the Latin Mass I do highly recommend that you do a quick search on the customs and traditions of the Mass (i.e. how you should dress, how you should consume the Eucharist etc.)The church itself is beautiful and timeless inside and out. There are few churches in Canada that perform the Latin Mass.Update: Unfortunately, they no longer offer the Latin Mass here.

St. Mary's is a very welcoming and engaging church. Located in central downtown Kitchener, it has a spectacular architectural effect (oldest Catholic church in Kit), beautiful stained glass (worth a visit!). This past year and a half, St. Mary's has been focusing on Outreach and partnering with other community services (ie. The Working Centre, Mennonite Central Committee, etc. ) to provide care and support to our neighbors in need in the downtown area. Early this winter, St. Mary's provided emergency Warming Centre sleepovers for over 100 people for almost 2 weeks as winter came upon us early this year. We also have a very active St. Vincent de Paul Society which distributes food to those in need twice a week. If you've been thinking of returning to Mass, consider St. Mary's. I guarantee a welcoming experience! St. Mary's has weekday Mass, Tues-Fri. at noon, and is also home to the Latin Mass congregation each Sun. at 3:00 p.m. Introduce yourself, at the regular Masses, to Fr. Toby, Fr. Dan, Fr. Joseph and Rianne, the Outreach worker! They love to meet new friends!! PLUS - Hearing aids available and sound system amazing!
