I have been watching the Sunday masses since the COVID shutdowns and love them. The Bishop says the Mass with such reverence and beautiful homilies. I am really impressed with the way Father Precourt reads the homilies so meaningfully. I absolutely love when he presides, in English, at St. Charles Seminary during the week. He also says the Mass so beautifully and his homilies are outstanding, always touching my heart!

My aunt became ill suddenly and I called for last rights. The lady who answered was so kind and a priest went over almost right away. It was so important to my aunt and it means the world to know you have so many people on your side. The love shown in moments like these are all you need to know about this church.

I love this church, it has nice windows but lacks lighting during cloudy days or winter. At work and on other context I am surrounded by atheists and pagans quite often so I like to go to this church from time to time to reinforce my armor against paganism. The only real flaw of this place is that during mass is often visited by wealthy people who even inside the house of god won’t hesitate in looking at you as second class citizen if your appearance doesn’t resemble economic wealth. During Christmas they have nice events. Overall a nice and quiet place where to meditate.

My visit to this church was beautiful. A group of fellow college students and I visited while on a mission trip and everyone enjoyed the Spanish mass. Gorgeous architecture that I couldnt help but photograph. Great experience!

As the Cathedral for the Catholic Diocese of El Paso this building is very special. Saint Pedro Maldonado was commissioned in the Cathedral before the Cristero Wars of Mexico and he life is honored within. There are many beautiful ministries and a large ACTS community. The Cathedral recently added the Knights of Columbus as well. There are many ways to involve oneself in the life and community of church. The building itself is massive and there are beautiful details throughout the building. This is a beautiful place to worship or just to visit for architectural reasons.

My favorite church but stopped going cause, when there is no service a lot of people from the street would be lurking around, and staff nowhere to be found, found it unsafe

Beautiful cathedral and fantastic history. They dont have many churches of this historic look and wow appeal. Stain glass windows that arent made like these. A must visit place!

Excellent substitute priest. For 11:30 Mass on 01/12/20.. Do not like the original priest Trini speaks to much Spanish and his homilies are always about him. Pray we get a new preist.

Older church on the edge of downtown El Paso. I think its beautiful inside and out. Well maintained and cared for by staff and parishioners. Also thank goodness its quietly air conditioned...105 degrees outside.

I dont like to miss Mass just because Im out of town. I love to visit other Catholic churchs where I go. This church is beautiful. The inside is breath taking & gorgeous. I really enjoyed the homily the day I went. Definitely will be looking forward to going again the next time Im in town in El Paso. God bless this curch & its priest & members.

Review №28

The three best things I love about this Cathedral are the stained glass windows, the pillars, and the high altar. This makes it efficacious to know youre in a holy place.Only the Novus Ordo Missae is celebrated here but at least its a Catholic Church so you know the True Presence is here.The Holy Tabernacle is hidden away in a side chapel but at least you know Sanctifying Grace is dispensed here.Many times the Penitential Rite is skipped in lieu of a hymn repeating Holy Spirit but what can you do?At practically every Mass, there is the hand holding during the Pater Noster, which is another liturgical abuse, but what can you do?During communion, you will always see extraordinary ministers who presume they have the right to hold the most precious Body of Christ in their hands but, again, this is the mass of the New Order so what can you do?At least they dont have Eucharistic dancers yet so thats a plus.

This is a beautiful Catholic Cathedral. Come over on 1st Friday of the month for adoration.

The church is incredibly beautiful with its Gothic Ceilings and beautiful stained glass. However, the main Priest of this particular parish makes you feel like an unwanted and over stayed 3rd removed Cousin. Pompous, arrogant and definitely is not a people person. He definitely has unresolved issues. Its a shame because this Church and its Parishoners definitely deserve better!!!

Most beautiful parish in the west of Texas. Very happy to partake in it. And beautifully set up architecture, comparable to that of the cathedrals in Europe and South America.-Greg Zimmers

Review №36

The spiritual Catholic heart of El Paso by far. Although is not a large church, it goes back to the early 20th century and has a very classic design, wooden floors and pews, a beautiful main altar, and nice side altars including one, of course, with the image of the Irish Saint. The Cathedral is very well kept and is a joy to visit and pray there.

Very friendly people at the 11:30 Mass on April 23 2017. Seemed to be a community of caring people. Reverent mass. Seemed like almost everyone received communion under both species. Beautiful choir and organ. Cantor was clear about asking the congregation to sing. Acoustics were perfect for me. The inside of the building is beautiful! Never did find the tabernacle but I am guessing that it was in a room to the left of the altar.

Theres plenty of beautiful history at the main Catholic church of the city. I attend mass here June-early August and have met kind and loyal parishioners here.The choir and the architecture impress but the times Ive visited or called the office staff they have not been warm nor attentive. Messages and emails are not returned promptly and their seems to be a lack of diplomacy or hospitality in certain staff. I was told that if I didnt like the policies of the church I could go elsewhere (in those exact words). Why should they listen to the people if they have complete autonomy. You may think, well, thats how the Church operates. Lets hope other reviewers can attest to a much better experience.
