St Francis Xavier Church Melaka

We had a weekend in Melaka in the last week of Oct 2011 and we attended the sunset mass at the SFX Melaka. Whenever, we go to Melaka (my parents are born and raised here), we normally attend mass at this church as it was very near my grandmother's house then.

The church was built in the late 1800s and has renovations have been done not too long ago and the church now looks good.

A statue of the patron saint in front.
Also a statue of Mother Mary at the front
 There are quite a number of stained glassed around the church and this gives character to the building.

Main wing of the church.
The music for the mass was well played and the air circulation is good. The public address system is also done properly without echos as a number of the older churches tend to have this problem if not done right.

Until the next time, cheers.
