Saint Cecilia Parish

About this church

Saint Cecilia Parish, a Roman Catholic church at 18 Belvidere Street in Boston's Back Bay area, celebrates Mass on Saturday at 5 p.m. and on Sunday at 8 a.m., 9:30 a.m., and 11:30 a.m. Weekday Masses are held Wednesday through Friday at 8 a.m. The 9:30 a.m. Sunday Mass is also livestreamed. The parish is known for its music program, with three choirs that sing everything from Gregorian chant to contemporary choral works at the main Sunday liturgies. After the 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. Masses, a coffee hour in the parish hall gives visitors a chance to meet parishioners.

Parishioners can serve as altar servers, lectors, Communion ministers, greeters, and musicians. Children's faith formation prepares young people for First Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation, and baptism preparation classes are offered for parents. Other parts of parish life include a home-visit program for isolated and homebound members, an online coffee hour, retreats, and outreach partnerships with nonprofit organizations. The church building is accessible by elevator at two entrances. Discounted parking is available at a nearby garage using a ticket from a greeter.
