My family and I are visiting the island in July. We are wondering if there is a Catholic Church and where? Thanks!!
Hi, Glna:
The Chancery has an informational page up: http://www.islands.vi/~chancery/
Call to verify schedules and such...
If you will be on St. Thomas, there is a beautiful Roman Catholic Cathedral downtown in Charlotte Amalie. There are plenty of other Catholic churches, but the Cathedral is beautiful!

This page http://www.islands.vi/~sjhs/schedule.html of the same site A. Davis mentioned has mass schedules for Catholic Churches in the VI. Good idea to call and confirm though as it says 2004.

Sorry All, We're visiting St.John. Thanks for the info!!!
Sunday Masses at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel are at 7:30 and 9:30. There is a Mass on Sat. night either 5:30 or 6.
Looking for spanish mass in St Thomas USVI
There might be one. The Spanish Mass that I know of is on St. John on Sunday night. Not sure of the time but it's between 5 and 6. Father Crespo is a dynamic priest. You'll enjoy his homily.
Is the normal dress on STJ (shorts, tee and sandals) appropriate for Sunday mass there?
crickett : )
Sorry but no...shorts, tee and sandals are not appropriate for Sunday Mass on St. John or I would think anywhere else.
