The Shrine Church of Our Lady of the Rockies

This is a spot well worth visiting. The community in Canmore should be proud of what they have here. The architecture of the temple is surprisingly well done. Modern churches tend to be impersonal and are nearly characterless. But this one is very well done. I like the cruciform, the santuary and altar are tastefully done and present a reverent setting. The chancel is demarcated by a sliding metal curtain with the symbols of the four evangelists. The statuary in the sanctuary is worth approaching and examining from close. So is the awesome, large baptismal font. The stain glass above the altar is beautiful, and dominates the interior. I was happy to see that the rest of the windows were left clear. This is one of the most admirable features of the building. There is soooo much natural light, and the large windows allow viewing some of the peaks in the surrounding mountain setting. I loved this church.

Beautiful Marian Shrine. The design, sculptures and aura give a feel of God's presence. The stained glass with the three sisters is everything!

Modern, Newly built. Very clean. We attended the Saturday anticipated mass.

It's one of the most beautiful Catholic churches I've been. The sorounding is stunning as well with canmore/rocky mountains. Very clean, modern, and peaceful.

Beautiful church in a spectacular location surrounded by a small park and green space where deer will visit to nibble the lawn.

Absolutely beautiful church! Be sure to do a pilgrimage prayer devotion to Our Lady of the Rockies when there. It also acts as a tour of the church.

Incredible view of the Rockies from the church, which perfectly suits the name. Beautiful Mass, young energetic priest. A bit empty on Sunday evening but God is here all the same!

Very nice building and service. Check it out they have a few different mass times. Theres even a little library on the second floor. I like the prayer room and stain glass window.

Such a beutiful church. Church was closed but priest let us in and showed us around!
