Denomination | Roman Catholic Church |
The St. Patrick's Church[1] is the name given to a religious building of the Catholic Church which is located in the town of Lookout on the Caribbean island of Montserrat,[2] part of the Lesser Antilles and a British overseas territory.
The temple follows the Roman or Latin rite and depends on the missions of Divine Mercy which is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Saint John's - Basseterre (Dioecesis Sancti Ioannis Imatellurana).
In 1997 the church was affected by a volcanic eruption[3] that caused damage to much of the island, and only until 2009 could complete the reconstruction and reopening of the temple.[4]
