The homily by the priest was extremely fruitful and profound.The church itself is large, beautiful and well maintained.Definitely a good choice for mass.I’ve been there for confession in the morning twice; both times was a simple, quick and not a spiritually fruitful experience at all. It would be nice if the priest offered more real guidance and care instead of that “just getting it over with” kind of feel.

It is an old and beautiful temple. Very welcoming to pray. Beautiful cathedral

Spanish mass starts at 5pm. The church is beautiful inside and very welcoming. Find peace in our Lords house...

One of the most beautiful churches in Houston. Great place to pray.

My first time on a Vietnamese/ English Service, it was amazing. I love the blend of cultures and the inside of the cathedral was impressively beautiful. it looks like an European Cathedral but in a modern style. Amazing design.

My parents and I are parishioners here. My wedding ceremony was held here and it was beautiful! Staff was pleasant to work with. They really care about you and strive to make your special day great.

I love the sermon, the beautiful message of hope during the service and the singer for the church truly has a heavenly voice.

A simple but elegant cathedral that offers confession before every mass.

Beautiful church in downtown Houston. Actually got married here the first weekend it was opened. My son was baptized here as a newborn.

History, classic design and most importantly a truly spiritual atmosphere.

Beautiful place the security guard was amazing and friendly he even informed us of it name and how it came to be. Its the Co-Cathedral because of a cathedral located elsewhere shared its same status. Granting this location a higher status because how powerful and populated Houston was becoming. What a great stop! See it if youre downtown.

There are 8 bigger than life-sized statues of saints such as St. Martin de Porres, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, and St. Juan Diego. The Mass was excellent and the homily was inspiring.

The people their are wonderful.

Probably the most boring cathedral building I ever saw. They could have done it better

A peaceful and beautiful place to pray.

A majestic church!

Beautiful.wish we could have spent more time. Lovely docents and staff. Welcomed our busload. Answered our questions.

Beautiful cathedral, but limited and inconvenient parking.

I love the Co-Cathedral. Ive been to it many times before and think its just absolutely beautiful. Its everything a Cathedral should be. Large vaulting ceiling, large pillars, and a grand main room with a beautiful alter. If you have the chance to visit, you should make sure you park in the designated parking lot across from the church to avoid having to pay for parking nearby. Good luck and I hope you like it!

Wery nice place for the mess and wedding.

... Find me in My fathers house ...

Friendly atmosphere. Nice place to come and meet fellow Catholics. Plenty of parking. Easy to get there.

Went Sunday afternoon for MLK service. Parking was easy enough many spots. Free as well. The cathedral was close by. If youre bringing someone in wheelchair suggest dropping them off in front first, as it becomes a little more difficult to navigate traffic lights and curbs but doable if necessary.Experience was great. The atmosphere and sights were great. Photography was welcomed and everything your eyes see is a photo op. Acoustics were also amazing. You could hear a piece of cotton fall from the altar and be sitting in the back and hear it. Bad news if theres a crying baby though. All in all A great experience.

A wonderfully blessed place of meditation. Ones spirit is naturally lifted there. Attended the holy Mass and was blessed with the viewing of the Blessed Sacrement. It made my day. Thank you .

I would like the Vatican to change to Orthodox. Extremely professional officers on site.

This church makes me feel it is an honor onto itself and not Gods holy house. See the Church of the Annunciation. 150 years old versus 10. The priest at Co-cathedral are great.

Easy parking, plenty of seats. Sound system needs work but it is a great Church that reminds people downtown to think of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ!

Its the vital beating heart of Catholicism in Houston. Its got beautiful architecture, well maintained and has a vital dynamic, church community.Its a great place, but a bit far for us to regularly attend.One fault though: the sound system could use some work. Every time weve gone its hard to hear the cantor and choir over the organ.If thats a problem, sit up front (theres always room in the front pews - its a Catholic Church after all).

My go to place for answers and for worship...

The silence and spiritual atmosphere of this holy place are great! A good place to pray and worship.

An incredible and an amazing Cathedral. It is breathtaking, peaceful and tranquil! No matter how many times I attend Mass or just visit the Cathedral outside of Mass, it always feels like the first time. Every time is a different experience - I just continue to be amazed by its phenomenal beauty. God is Good

Though this is a large church, it keeps the mystery and awe of Gods presence in the cathedral architecture. The parish community is warm and inviting.

The presence of the Lord is there! Lets acknowledge Him

Went to mass it was not crouded people were wearing masks , and social distance

Best cathedral I’ve been to by far I love this place I always feel welcomed by everyone and I love the priest who talks for Sunday morning mass.

The most beatiful church,i can feel God presence.

Big beautiful church with parking lot right in front of it across the street

This is a church. Awesome place to go learn on a Sunday or anytime you are in need of God in your life. It does not get that busy so its great overall.

I dont come often but it was amazing today, met somebody who was singing very beautifully this time.

An Awesome place of worship for Catholic Mass!

One of the most beautiful churches Im all of Houston. 7am mass helps for those busy Sundays too!

Beautiful church, great service. Would definitely like to come back for mass.

The Lords love and mercy is felt at every service.

Beautiful and calming place to go listen to mass or simply walk in to pray. Parking is available nearby, just dont forget to pay rhe meter.

Came for my ashes. Love this church so much

Its a wonderful place for worship

Beautiful. Its a very good combination of old and new architecture styles.

Beautiful! Gorgeous! And soooooo wonderful!

Really nice church. Even getting married there. They are strict but good if you want nice things

The architecture and and art are beautiful. the Mass is celebrated reverently and the music is absolutely amazing.

Beautiful place of worship, love the feel of peace and serenity around the building. The service was really good.

Such a beautiful and wonderful place!

Cardinal DiNardo an Excellent Homily.

Takes your breath away. Good to take time and feel the presents of God.

Beautiful church and very nice place for Sunday mass.

It has an impressive 4story stained glass image of a 6-oack, ripped Jesus floating over the skyline of Houston.

Simple, beautiful, prayerful and with a wonderful spirit of hospitality.

The Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart In Downtown Houston represents the culture of people who follow the Catholic faith in Houston. You can find culture at religious buildings because it is a formal region where the people all believe and follow in what their religion tells them to do. Historically, the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart has been one of the larger Catholic Churches in Houston, and it has also been a place where adherents of the Catholic faith can gather in worship.The characteristics of the culture for Catholics includes how the priests and deacons dress for mass and how the people of the church try to live their lives. This culture is unique because during the masses, the priest or deacon who is giving the mass wears special garments unlike everyone else. Also the culture is unique because followers of the Catholic faith are told to model their lives after their savior, Jesus, so that changes how they act and speak to other people.

Only walked by on my way to a parking garage to get my care...therefore no opinion

Such a beautiful, sacred place with a friendly, diverse congregation. Homilies are incredible, and to me the biggest example of the devotion of the priests to the welfare of their congregation is the fact that confessions are offered every single day before every mass! I have never heard of this level of committment before and it is inspiring.There is a wealth of tradition behind why Catholic churches are built and furnished as they are and it is fascinating. Much of it is decended from the Jewish synagogues. The CoCathedral offers tours, generally on Sunday afternoons, that are well worth a visit! Check the website for when they are available and be sure to check it out.

Beautiful church and nice homily! Definitely would come back :)

Its a beautiful and huge church. I love going here to hang out with Jesus in the blessed sacrament. You have to stay for a Mass. The bathrooms are clean and the blessings are many.

Beautiful! You feel at peace when you open the door..

Aesthetically, just not a very pretty building. I know its built later than most cathedrals but, yeah, not my favorite.

Lots of green, peaceful and quiet, good place for relaxing.

Very nice tranquil Church to go to mass at it is main cathedral in Houston and its very beautiful they spend a lot of money for it to look good and to critics I say you have to spend money to make sure it lasts

Houston texas

Attended a choir performance here. The acoustics were as beautiful as the stained glass

Confession thirty minutes before Mass is a Blessing!

Serene setting to get married in Catholic tradition.

Beautiful and peaceful. An amazing church nestled right in downtown

A place of peace and a place to feel Gods presence in your life
