St. John's Catholic Church, Catholic church building in Worcester, United States
The brick structure stands at 44 Temple Street with a central high altar and multiple shrines positioned throughout the sanctuary for religious devotion.
Founded in 1834, St. John's Catholic Church became the first Catholic religious institution in Worcester and the oldest Catholic parish in New England outside Boston.
The Novena of Grace ceremony honoring St. Francis Xavier takes place annually from March 4 to 12, maintaining a tradition that started in 1922.
The church accommodates 2,000 people and provides spaces for musicians, with regular Mass services scheduled on weekdays and weekends for the congregation.
The church exterior design resembles Protestant architecture, featuring brick walls from 1846 and a steeple added in 1951.
