Mater Misericordiae Catholic Church

Mater Misericordiae Catholic Church is a truly exceptional Catholic parish. I recently attended Mass and was impressed with the accessibility of their confession times, the reverence of the priest and congregation, and the little red books provided to follow along during Mass. Overall, I highly recommend Mater Misericordiae Catholic Church to anyone seeking a deep, meaningful Catholic worship experience.

I did not know this parish exsist till yesterday. I had an opportunity to participate in the Rosary before the 12pm mass. It was a holy experience, the parish even said a portion in Latin and I was blown away on the children's ability in Latin. It's a great church with holy laity.

I'm not a Trad, but I've attended here several times. High Mass on Sundays is extremely crowded & the isles are very narrow. Low Mass on weekday Masses are well attended. Those who love TLM will surely love this parish! I'm trying to develop an appreciation for it. Everyone appears to be loving and dedicated from the heart to Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Catholic Faith.
FYI - at this parish it's expected not only for married women to cover their hair as St. Paul taught in the New Testament "to honor her husband", but also for single women, too, even little girls, to cover their hair, too. I'm not sure where that tradition comes from, but they practice it here - that being said, there were no dirty looks or anything negative like that when my daughter didn't have her hair covered during one of our visits.

Reverent and orthodox FSSP priests. Beautiful Latin Mass. Wonderful experience every time! A bit of a drive (45-60 min), but definitely worth it!! Thank you Frs. Passo and Malain for helping to save souls.

+JMJ...Very beautiful Church permeated by the transcendental. Lovely stained glass windows depicting moments in the life of Jesus and His Mother, Mary. Mater Misericordiae is Latin for Mother of Mercy. Stepping into this House of Prayer, one should be aware of being immersed into a little bit of Heaven on earth. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is offered in the traditional manner in place centuries before Vatican II. It is prayerful and conducive to reflection upon Jesus's sacrifice for all mankind. An aside: I must address a comment made by a fellow supposedly named Alonzo. I suspect that he might be a troll whose sole purpose is to interject negatively upon this Catholic community. However, if his experience is real, he should return and ask to speak to one of the parish priests. I am a black female, a revert to my Catholic faith, and have participated in Holy Mass in this welcoming Church several times. Though I live in Cottonwood, a friend and I travel to Phoenix to participate in the First Saturday devotions. My own experiences have been no different than the other Holy Mass attendees. We prayed the Rosary as a group, participated in Holy Confession, spent time in silent prayer before and after Holy Mass. And, those who felt inclined spent time socializing outside in the courtyard. Mater Misericordiae can be a place of spiritual respite for those who sincerely seek it here.
