St
Mary’s
church
is
a
beautiful
Roman
Catholic
Church,
centrally
located
in
West
Croydon
area,
serving
over
two
thousand
regular
parishioners
every
week!
I
don’t
think
there’s
any
church
around
here
which
gets
jam
packed
(it
attracts
a
thousand
parishioners,
many
will
stand
patiently
as
pews
gets
occupied
during
weekend
masses
during
Sunday
masses!).
Built
over
150
years,
the
church
is
very
well
maintained
and
looked
after.
Its
interiors
are
quite
appealing
with
plenty
of
natural
lighting
(church
boasts
ample
electric
lighting
too,
huge
halogen
lights
arranged
on
the
ceiling),
pews
arranged
in
four
columns
with
ample
seating,
carpeted
with
maroon
and
red
coloured
carpets
which
are
always
inviting.
You
can
see
a
gorgeously
arranged
altar
and
a
tabernacle
on
a
high
place,
always
lit
well
and
arranged
with
beautiful
flowers.
The
ceilings
are
quite
high
with
octagonal
columns
and
ancient
window
panes.
It
celebrates
6
masses
on
a
Sunday,
all
these
masses
are
served
by
excellent
and
varied
choirs
ranging
from
Children’s,
young
adults,
Ugandan,
Philippino,
Malayalam
and
English
and
Latin
too.
Recently
they’ve
introduced
Male
Voice
Choir
on
a
last
Sunday
of
each
month.
The
clergy,
music
ministry
are
very
warm
in
welcoming
everyone.
I’m
a
regular
here,
so
my
review
might
be
biased,
however
I
do
ask
you
to
visit
once
and
find
out
for
yourself!
