Reviews of St Mary of the Angels
D.I used to frequent St Mary of the Angels to attend the weekly liturgy in my heyday as a VUW student. Sometimes, I would go there just to contemplate the future, or seek spiritual refuge. Being away from home was challenging at the time.
The church is located on the corner of Boulcott Street and O'Reily Avenue in Wellington, New Zealand. It is the parish church for Wellington Central and one of the major churches of the city. The church is classified as a special or outstanding historical or cultural heritage significance. So, it's worth a visit, especially if you're a practising Roman Catholic.
St Mary of the Angels is also renowned for its Gregorian Chant used in liturgies.
J.Absolutely beautiful church with great preists! All Catholics travelling it Wellington should come and see this awesome church.
P.Lovely Roman Catholic church.. Centrally located very close to Courtney Place.. Beautiful and serene church.. Felt very peaceful.. They conduct a mass at 5.15pm everyday in the Roman Catholic rite..
R.I don't why we need to review Churches. Is it as if one place sends more souls to heaven than the rest? Otherwise, this is a really beautiful church. Priests are really accomodating, nice and friendly.
R.Great architecture. Angel carvings and stained glass. Very solemn place.
O.A perfect haven in the midst of the bustle.
Beautifully cared for. Welcoming.
D.Beautiful church with some of the most impressive stained glass I've seen.
I.This church is a beautiful, deeply spiritual sanctuary in the middle of the city.
P.Wow what an icon of architecture. I love the design of the building. Even if you're not religious, it's architecture and grandeur is great to appreciate. We went to a wedding and the light shining through the stain glass windows looked awesome. Great location for a wedding.!
A.Beautifully restored after earthquake strengthening work. A very spiritual place. A choral Mass is a lovely uplifting spiritual experience.
R.Impressive church with amazing architecture.
M.It's a beautiful church. Has mass at convenient times even at noon day. It also has other sacraments available during the week, like confessions. All the opportunities that the church provides, helps us grow in our spiritual journey and that is wonderful.
H.My husband and I went to mass here during our honeymoon last year.
Pros:
-Beautiful architecture.
-The choir was one of the best I've ever heard- especially on a normal, ordinary time Sunday.
Cons:
-Too many Extraordinary Ministers. It was excessive.
-There were only two Altar Servers. One of them showed up late and tried sneaking in the back before the gospel reading. That being said, neither server really did anything during mass. If you want them to take the role seriously (and maybe even discern a vocation), please give them responsibilities.
-The overall attitude of the priest seemed "casual." I'm not sure what other word to use to describe it. Everything felt off. There was such a stark contrast between the formal/beautiful architecture and music compared with the casualness of everything else.
This church broke my heart a little bit. It was clearly an aging congregation, and the pews were mostly empty. We were some of the youngest in attendance that Sunday. I think I saw just one family with small children.
R.Such a beautiful church. Detailed interior that gives out a sense of spiritual wellbeing. Reminds me of the Auckland Cathedral.
T.Beautiful interior. Am born & bred Wellingtonian & have always wanted to see inside. Stained glass just stunning. The acoustics are amazing. Exceeded my expectations.
p.I LOVE THIS PLACE! Such a great church, its absolutely gorgeous. One of my absolute favourite places in Welly
S.Pentecost. An interdenominational church service. Very beautiful building. Utterly gorgeous acoustics! Wonderful, worshipful music. Very stirring to hear the Latin again, and most wonderful Plainsong.
R.Very cool church in the middle of town, the blue of the altar area is quite striking.
a.I was here for a Bach and Vivaldi concert. The church is beautiful in itself, and captivating. The church seemed to add a quality to the concert.
P.A beautiful church that is currently get the pipe organ restored. I've heard it play a long time ago and it truly is a demonstration of musical joy. The rest of the church has been lovingingly restored and looked after with fantastic and indicative wooden interiors for the time it had been built. Having mass here is an experience to cherish and likewise being part of a wedding. Praise be to all the parishners that ensures this place endours.
H.Architecturally impressive. A spiritual, peaceful and reflective place to enjoy which is open to the public. I use their app a lot to keep in touch with events and notifications.
L.Such a beautiful church and a bonus being so close to my work in the city as I'm able to pop in here during my lunch break to light candles for our dearly loved one's that we lost this year.
C.A very beautiful church. The lead light windows and decor are breathtaking
T.Beautiful Church. Has stations of the Cross on the walls. Projector is supplied for songs and acclamations. The 11am Sunday Mass choir is stupendous
S.Beautiful as always- I only had enough change for two candles but wanted to light 5 I lighted my two...went and prayed and when I looked up there were five sadly though my prayer was not answered for the people in the way I had wished.
E.The overall architectural design is five stars. The priest and the people are very warm and friendly. Except for the misconfigured lectern microphone, the 9am Sunday mass proceeded well.
D.Beautifully built church with plenty of space for worshippers. The environment is great.
C.A beautiful church, where over the years I have spent desperate hours praying for God's help and Our Lady's intercession. They heard my prayers.
R.Beautiful and peaceful Cathedral. Much needed space for some solitude, pray and calmness.
s.A masterpiece of new gothic style in reinforced concrete combined with some of New Zealand’s most advanced seismic engineering keeps this spiritual oasis in the centre of Wellington standing.
B.Always lovely at St Marys. Mass starts right on time (0700) which leaves you free for most of Sunday morning. Great.
S.I spent some time trying to photograph the church. It's very beautiful. Didn't have time to go inside.
G.A pretty church that has plenty to look at. Freezing in winter, acoustics are ok, but can be echoey. Parking is a real pain if you don't go to the parking building across the street.
F.A very historical Catholic church in the heart of Wellington. Good service priest and parishners.

A.(Translated) It is a Catholic church, there are not many in New Zealand and it is very beautiful. It has the classic style of the Catholic churches. Nice stained glass and sculptures. The altar has a very good design.
If you like churches it is a very good option to visit.

K.(Translated) A very nice catholic church. Of course in Europe older and beautiful, but for New Zealand conditions a beautiful stone church with stained glass etc. It is well visited. It should be noted that the majority of New Zealanders are atheists. Catholics come to about 12%.
(Original)
Eine sehr schöne katholische Kirche. Natürlich findet in Europa Ältere und Schönere, aber für neuseeländische Verhältnisse eine schöne Steinkirche mit Glasmalerei etc. Sie ist dazu gut besucht. Man sollte beachten, dass die Mehrheit aller Neuseeländer Atheisten sind. Katholiken kommen auf etwa 12%.
