Dan Priest

A truly Catholic faith community! No watering down of the faith so often seen in other places. The music was exceptional and the liturgy very reverent. A refreshing change!

Beth Ballweg

While on vacation, we attended the Novus Ordo Latin Mass on Sunday morning. Confessions at 8:15, Mass at 9am. There are Mass response sheets in the entryway for the Latin vs English. Communion rail is used at Mass. Tomb of 1st bishop of Nashville is near confessionals. Pews & floor creak, reminiscent of Mass in a small town with my grandma many years ago. Parking is free on Sundays in church lot. Police patrol the entry & unlock gates at 8:15. A few homeless people around the church, but all was calm.

Matt Perenich

This church is absolutely beautiful. Amazing mass, powerful choir, and participating congregation.

Ruth G

Loved the Easter Vigil! Beautiful traditional latin mass. They have a chior of angels! Beautiful music.

Lorena Marani

Beautiful small church . Well taken care of. Very peaceful place.

Joe

Went to Mass at St Mary's in Nashville. One of the parishioners was kind enough to explain the history. Very friendly parish.

Beverly Nichols

We were in the basement, so we didn't see the sanctuary. It is the oldest church in Nashville!

William Heyer

This church design by William Strickland is one of three buildings on capital hill that should be visited. Strickland designed the Greek Revival State Capitol and is buried there. He also designed the Presbyterian Egyptian style church nearby. Very talented mid-nineteenth century Greek Revival architect transplanted from Philadelphia.

Rob English

One of the most beautiful services ever. Beautiful building. Beautiful art. Beautiful people. Smart and gracious message. Beautiful.

Tracy Lynn

It was so beautiful to visit! I went to confession prior to mass, and gave myself plenty of time to do the Divine Mercy Chaplet and the Rosary, prior to mass. The mass was said in English, but some of the songs were in Latin. It was refreshing to receive communion on the tongue. I'm so glad we went to mass there!

Jason

Truly amazin, the warmth and calming I feel when I go to St Marys.

Joseph Morrison

The building is very beautiful. I felt the presence of God. So glad that I wondered in for mass at 12:10 pm. Just what I needed. It is conveniently located across from the bus station in the heart of downtown Nashville. I would greatly recommend that you swing through and check the place out. Glad I took this opportunity to stop in and pray during these trying times that we are all experiencing. Peace be with you.

Aungies “Blue” Osburn

Just stopped by the outside and took a quick peek. The church is pretty for sure.

Michael Hopkins

A very beautiful church with a committed parish community. At 8am with a rainy day, families with young to older children were dressed respectfully for church giving praise to God. As a visitor from the Miami Area, it is a refreshing change from parishioners looking more like their going to the beach or soccer event arriving 30 minutes late and leaving right after receiving communion. Congratulations to this Parish in Nashville in it's respect and commitment to God.

Katie Wade

I feel so grateful to Fr. Neely for upholding Catholic values and above all, the sanctity of the Holy Eucharist. During the last year of COVID-19 debauchery Fr. Neely hasn't failed to lead us when so many other priests have disgraced our Lord. His homilies are always so informative and keep my attention. I learn something new every week.

Megan Schramm

A beautiful and historic church! I went to the 9am Latin Mass and really enjoyed it.

Bill Word

Please be aware that as of Aug 1 2020 this church does NOT require facemasks. Communion is given on the tongue with everyone huddled at the altar. This is NOT safe and does not comply with either the Diocese or City of Nashville COVID-19 mask regulations. We were very disappointed and did not l safe receiving communion. Otherwise, the place is beautiful, convenient to downtown and the priest's homily was great. This is an old school parish where the priest faces the altar and the music is Gregorian / Latin.

Gale Wheaton

OMG. I was blown away with this visit. Relic of many Saints as you enter...bishop offered Mass two minutes after our arrival..so beautiful! Can't wait to go again. Had to leave 4 am to get there. Nice drive.

William Woeste

9 am Sunday is a high mass with lots of insence. Ventilation is low so smokey inside. Gregorian chant was very well done. Priest says concretion with back to congregation. Much of mass in Latin. No sign of peace. Communion is kneeling at railing of Alter.

Kathryn Gant

St. Mary's has become my downtown oasis. When I need to get away from the office to pray and calm down, I go to the mid-day mass. I am so grateful for it being so close and for the kind, beautiful parishioners that welcome me even though I am not Catholic.

Joe Romeo

A MUST go church and the oldest in Nashville Lot's of Latin in the mass and Father Jay does a great job. Traditional church Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, Mass celebrated ad orientem. Kneel at an old fashion kneeler for communion - respectful, reverential, and quiet place to pray.

Ricardo Reyes

Daily Mass, oldest church in Nashville, warm and inviting, in the centre of downtown Nashville. I go to daily Mass while on lunch during the weekdays. There's something about being with the Lord and getting away from conference calls, emails, and spreadsheets - just calming and spiritually energising.

Brian m

Very traditional mass, latin, kneel at the alter for communion. Homily was great. Pastor was amazing

Wendell O'Reilly

Beautiful church in the shadow of the Capitol. Built by Irish labor in devotion to Our Lady. Worth a visit to get a sense of the velocity of change in Nashville.

Deborah Lee

I was in town and this parish had a mass at the right time. What a treasure this is. A historic building from 1867 and a beautiful, reverent liturgy with a mix of hymns and Latin and the priest was ad orientum.

Enzo T

Where heaven meets earth. Loved Holy Mass while visiting Downtown Nashville!

André Mooreland

This church is my neighbor. Mother Mary was an advent evangelist anglican saint that help Bishop Jerry E. Gordon teach and preach to me the bible at a young age. As a teenager I carried the word with me as I continued to study and learn the holy word. I am still learning. The Holy Word knows me better than I know myself. Saint Mary's Church of the Seven Sorrows is the oldest church in Nashville, Tennessee. During the United States Civil War 300 Union and Confederate soilders died in the main floor of the church. More Americans died in the United States Civil War than all American historically recorded wars combined.

Chris Wilborn

Really Nice and Historic church ! Thank you for making us feel welcomed.

Daggshasswagg

Beautiful church, was the second cathedral of the diocese of Nashville. Good traditional ordinary form mass.

f portelli

This really is a lovely church. It’s near the bus station; the area is a little run-down. I only found it open just before and for noon mass. Otherwise the iron bars keep the place inaccessible.

Liza Downey

The oldest standing church in Nashville is full of history and beautiful details. It's a great place to both worship and visit!

Jonathan Anderson

The staff is nice and friendly but the church goers well I'll put it like this iv been going for some time now and still ant found a church family there.

rosalyn horton

Lovely old church. Mass is wonderful. Lots of activities for married couples. Not so much for singles that I have seen in the bulletins

Charly Pazdor

Small church with a Latin mass, priest with his back to the congregation and a communion kneeling rail. Not my normal preference, but there was a good sermon and, in the end, it was an interesting experience.

jk sovine

If you are looking for a traditional mass celebration, this is one of the few Catholic churches in the Nashville area.

(Translation) It is a Church that has left a deep impression on me by its degree of silence and the capacity for meditation found there. The decorations and statues are breathtakingly beautiful and it is one of the few churches in which I have been able to find such religious peace and quiet. Everyone is charming, from the priest to the parishioners, and the welcome is extremely warm, you will always find someone to explain this or that decoration to you or to show you around the whole Church. It’s a great memory and I recommend anyone who might be passing through the area stop by to view this work of art. Believer or not, you will be captivated by the beauty and hospitality of this extraordinary place. (Original) C’est une Eglise qui m’a profondément marqué par son degré de silence et la capacité de recueillement qu’on y trouve. Les décorations et les statues sont d’une beauté à couper le souffle et elle est une des rares Églises dans laquelle j’ai pu trouver une telle quiétude et un tel calme religieux. Tout le monde est charmant, du prêtre aux paroissiens, et l’accueil est d’une rare chaleur, vous trouverez toujours quelqu’un pour vous expliquer telle ou telle décoration ou pour vous faire visiter l’ensemble de l’Eglise. C’est un excellent souvenir et je recommande à tout le monde qui serait susceptible de passer dans le secteur de s’arrêter afin de visiter cette œuvre d’art. Croyant ou non, vous serez subjugué par la beauté et l’accueil de cet endroit hors du commun.
