Yes.
cool. thanks!
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this website.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance.
I must say you have done a very good job with this.
In addition, the blog loads very quick for me on Firefox.
Exceptional Blog!
Thanks for the info Lyra. I will be attending mass tomorrow at Notre Dame cathedral. Appreciate to attach Google map also for the other churches.
hello, i will have short visit to Saigon on 7th Feb- 9th Feb, and this is my first trip to there, do you know what is the nearest Catholic Church from Sheraton Saigon Hotel? what time the English Mass ? thanks a lot
Notre Dame Cathedral. 🙂
thanks Lyra, what is the time for the English mass? i’m staying at Sheraton Saigon, is it far to Notre Dame ?

Unfortunately we don’t arrive in HCM City until 11.30am, so too late for the 9.30am Holy Mass. We have to leave by 4.30pm. Any suggestions for masses anywhere in HCM in any language?
