Gereja Santa

Gereja Santa is a modern church building in the Kebayoran Baru neighborhood that serves the Catholic community with multiple worship spaces. The complex includes a main hall for services, an older chapel section, and various rooms for community functions and meetings.

The congregation started in 1951 when Catholic families gathered for worship in private homes before establishing a permanent location. The building was inaugurated in 1956 after land was purchased, creating a proper parish church for the growing community.

The parish welcomes people from many backgrounds and offers services that reflect the multilingual character of the area. This openness to diversity shapes how the community gathers and shares its faith together.

The church complex provides multiple spaces for worship and community events, with both contemporary and traditional areas available for different uses. The neighborhood setting has changed over time, so visitors may encounter more activity during weekends when people travel from surrounding areas to attend.

The original chapel section built decades ago remains standing within the complex, offering a quiet space that contrasts with the larger modern prayer hall. This older part tells the story of how the parish expanded from its modest beginnings into what visitors see today.
