    The Holy Family Cathedral is an architecturally splendid church located in the heart of the city. The cathedral conducts masses on everyday basis, the timings for which can be found on their website. The masses are conducted in the various languages including English, Konkani, Tagalog, Malayalam etc. The cathedral is easily accessible via means of public transport as well, with several buses operating routes from all over the city.

    Attended the 9:15am mass today (Friday) for the very first time since the beginning of the pandemic. Had to register online and received a QR code to be scanned at the entrance. We arrived 15min earlier, gentleman at the gate barely looked at the code (nobody scanned it). They checked our temperature and directed us to a misting gantry. NO PROOF OF VACCINATION WAS REQUIRED AT ALL. Seats at the cathedral were all taken (“first come, first served”, we were told) so we had to go to a different hall to watch the mass shown on 2 screens. We had to exit the premises through the main gate and walk all the way to the back where our car was parked. That wasn’t fun at all under the scorching sun and 49°C! So the whole set up needs a little improvement, especially in regards to protecting the parish goers from the virus. Once again, NO PROOF OF VACCINATION WAS EVER REQUIRED. That being said, I’ll just keep on watching the mass LIVE on YouTube until things hopefully get better.

    The Cathedral dedicated to the Holy Family is the 4th Catholic Church in the State of Kuwait. At present, it is the seat of the Bishop of the Apostolic Vicariate of Northern Arabia. Its location is strategic as it is near the bus terminal and you can also dine in at nearby shops and restaurants. Devout Catholics flock during Fridays and Sundays to hear the Mass but it is always open daily for those who wanted to simply pay respect to our Lord Jesus Christ.

    A place to worship. There are masses in different languages and I attended English mass at 630 on Sunday. I appreciate the government given the land to build the cathedral. I was here 10 years ago and I think they had a renovation since then

    A beautiful church near the Gulf Coast. The parish office is very helpful, especially if you are new to Kuwait. The church itself is majestic. There are great places to pray and many Masses offered in many languages. A great place to restore and nourish the soul.

    If you really desire to spend quiet time with God, if you want to just listen to his voice, if you need to find Solace, if you want to open up your innermost thoughts to God, this is the place. Remember commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.

  • 5/5 Prem K. 1 year ago on Google
    Marvellous place for prayer, worship, and attending the holy Mass. Beautiful adoration Chapel is located inside the campus. Well maintained campus, and many halls are located inside the campus beside the main church. Parking will be challenging tasks and look for nearby parking spaces close to church.

    AC makes interior too cold, not healthy. Pedestrian access in zig zag instead of directly from the front square and through the main door. It feels like a clandestine building instead of a Cathedral... But the Lord is there!

    Good and beautiful place for worship

  • 4/5 Joel G. 1 year ago on Google
    Church architecture can involve several architectural elements which can vary amongst churches and cathedrals. Some common architectural elements include the cross, the crucifix, the portal, and buttresses. The cross represents Jesus and the sacrifice He made. The crucifix is a depiction of Christ on the cross.

    We pray everywhere but it's our duty to celebrate the Lord and the holy family as a community. It's a well maintained and well organised church. However I wish the updated schedules for the holidays are always shared everywhere. A reminder to the hungry souls to rejoice with our God.
