We just moved to San Juan and I'm looking for a Catholic Church with masses in English. Can anyone help? My daughter will need to take religion classes...hopefully in English...for her First Communion this year.

Hi Stella Maris in Condado is the hub of the English Speaking Catholic community. we have 3 masses in English each weekend ( Sat. 4:30; Sunday 9:30 Am and 12:30 PM) and provide all sacramental preparation and ministry for your family.

Please feel free to come by some Sunday and we can talk. The office can also give you information.
Look forward to seeing you.

I remember when mass used to be conducted in Latin, not Spanish or English.

Yes, then there was VATICAN COUNCIL II and our celbration was returned to the way it was at the time of Jesus and the Apostles: the living language of the people.. Come visit... it's wonderful and all are welcome!! We also speak French, Italian, German and some Creole.
We are happy to worship with you in Christ Jesus.

Where I am, there are masses in English and Spanish. I alternate between them, and I do recommend that you try the Spanish sometimes. There is lively music. Definitely inspired by the Holy Spirit!

Hi... Sorry I didn't run into you this weekend. Ironically, someone else came asking the same question and I thought it was you!
Anyway hope you found something.

There is also an English-speaking community at the San Ignacio church in Rio Piedras. Mass in English is every Sunday at 9:30. Religious Ed classes are held immediately after Mass and will start up again in late August/early September, including First Communion classes.
