St. George's Anglican/Episcopal congregation, Pattaya, will be holding their usual Christmas Service at 11 am in the Sunday School room of The Pattaya Church which may be entered from Soi 1, Third road or Soi 5 North Pattaya Road. All welcome to join us for the Service and fellowship afterwards.

Thank you for the invite but Pattaya is quite some distance from Chiang Mai.

Moved to Pattaya Forum.

Would be interested in a Roman Catholic mass for Christmas. Which is the best Catholic church in the Pattaya area? (Needs to be English mass)

I have a separate question as well: Strictly speaking it wouldn't be allowed for someone who is not a baptised catholic to do communion. My own personal belief is that JC himself did not require this himself when breaking the bread, so I've always encouraged any lady friend to join me in communion. But I'm not sure if this is truly frowned upon?

Can't say I'm even a Christmas and Easter Catholic anymore, but I long since stopped worrying about Church rules. Damnation if you break them today, but next week they have changed, and it's all OK.

I better leave it at that I feel a rant coming on....Merry Christmas

I would say St Nicholas Church on Sukhumvit, although I have never been for xmas mass, my friend a devout catholic frequents it

As for you question on communion I really don't know but my brother had to be confirmed before he could take part I don't think just baptism would be enough
