Reviews Summary
St Mary's Catholic Church in Echuca is a beautiful and tranquil sanctuary, praised for its welcoming community and prayerful atmosphere. While some find its Mass style to be uniquely lively and different from traditional expectations, many appreciate the spiritual presence and friendly parishioners. It's a place that offers both peace for reflection and a sense of community.
"A very strange Mass. From the unholy racket inside the Church before the Mass until the 5 minutes of carry-on after Father had ended the Mass, to the posters and notice boards, the coffee corner, guitars, etc. so very Protestant.
The most awful thing was the Congregation using the Orans position during the Our Father. Clearly a sinful breach of the Canon (907). We cannot impersonate Father. Not the worst Mass I’ve been to, but up there."

"Great Catholic Church. They also have a venue at the back for parishoners and toilet too."
