Things to do in Connecticut, United States: The Best Churches & Cathedrals

December 20, 2021 Marissa Gamble

Connecticut is a study in attraction and contrast. In one small state, you’ll find miles of sandy oceanfront shoreline, acres of forested hiking trails, and world-class museums, art and theater. Here family-friendly adventure parks and aquariums are just minutes from dynamic casino resorts and quaint, historic small towns — offering experiences that range from culinary to cultural, luxurious to laid-back. It’s the perfect place to unwind and recharge, all at the same time.

St. Mary's Church

Reviewed By victoriamonteverdi

It seems most reviewers are talking about St. Mary's on Hillhouse ave, a wonderful and lively Catholic parish, with many young families and a community of Dominican priests. It was there that Fr. McGivney founded the Knights of Columbus, who have their headquarters in New Haven but do good around the world. Unfortunately the picture added is of another church altogether. The building is not brick but stone (can be seen on Wikipedia) Note that as of February 2019, St. Mary's is undergoing renovations of its plaster interior and is temporarily closed. The Masses previously held at St. Mary's at 10 and Noon have been moved to the other church of the parish, St. Joseph, located on Edwards st. just a few blocks away, at 10:30am (with choral music) and Noon (with Gregorian chant) on Sundays.
