The Church of St. Francis Xavier - New York (NY)

Nelson Calcano Every time you walk into Church of the Village you are greeted by some of the most wonderful and grateful church member volunteers. For me it never felt like I was a number. From day one when Pastor Vicki greeted me by the door, I always felt as if I were a part of the church. This was around 5 years ago. The atmosphere and personal inclusion to make you a part of the church family is still strong at this church.

Jade Hodge {Martinez} My Family loves St. Teresa, its a Beautiful church, very welcoming. All of the Priests are wonderful, Father Baker does a wonderful job of making everyone who enters the Church feel like they are a part of a family, I especially love how he ends Ever Mass with "... it doesnt matter who you are, where you come from, what kind of lifestyle you live, everyone is welcome here". This church has really ignighted my want to attend church regularly like my family did when I was little and we have, my mother is now ever a lecture!I cannot wait to be Married in this wonderful church by such a wonderful Pastor in 2016!

Cooke Harvey Was there for a funeral but the clergy and helpers were extremely nice. Fun to chat with afterwards. The sermon was great and I can see why our dear departed enjoyed going there.

Chintan Desai Attended the Christmas Mass and it was a surreal experience. The hour long Mass was spectacular and the choir singing was super. The whole church was dark with plastic candle lights st the end when everyone sang silent nights. Simply a wonderful, spiritual experience. One should attend if you are around the city during Christmas

Nicholas Pascale Family oriented church, coffee, tea, water, donuts and cookies after Mass. Great choir. Good sermons. Lending library. Excellent concerned lay staff. You feel at home from the minute you walk in!

Rick Warren Absolutely love this church! Started by Saddleback Church just weeks after 9-11 to minister to the needs of NYC. Great teaching by Pastor Ryan Holladay. Great kids program. Try it!

Jonathan Mendez This church practices and teaches the true message of Love that God teaches us, a church where everyone is welcome, Beautiful homilies , beautiful music, this church has adult groups for baptism and confirmation and the best Easter Vigil in NYC.

Souza Christian (Csouza) Wonderful parish! The people are such a blessing. So thankful they have a TLM to attend daily plus a low and high mass on Sunday. A great gift shop with tables filled with Catholic texts.

María Elena Marin Beautiful and lovely church! I loved to listen such an angelic choir and I felt very pleased to be in that magnificent service, helped me to feel myself very comfortable and with inner peace!

Jamie Wojciechowski Beautiful church located near the 9/11 memorial that we visited during a lunch break downtown. The doors were open so we went inside to visit. The church is not large but impressive with a large altar and side chapels. Large statues inside make this church a must see.
