I attended a sung Latin Mass at 11AM on a Sunday and was truly impressed with the liturgy. The volunteer choir wad well-rehearsed and did a wonderful job. The organist was obviously a fine musician all of which added to a uplifting worship service by the celebrant.

We visited this church and monastery as part of the 'Wellington City Heritage Week' open day program. We attended guided tour for about half hour and also walked around the place leisurely. We also watched the video about the history and background of this place. It took us at least 2 hours to visit the whole monastery, e.g. chapel and library, etc. The maintenance job was being done when we were there. Therefore we did not have the chance to see all parts of this historic place. The bus runs from CBD directly to the monastery on weekdays. However it took us about half hour to walk from Courtenay Place via Mount Victoria on steep streets as the bus is not available on weekends. This is a must-see attraction in Wellington.
