Kom Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I am posting this on behalf of my best friend. He will be in Pattaya in January next year for about ten days. During his stay, he will need to go to a church on Sunday. It is much appreciated if you could help by providing the address (and possibly, the telephone number) of any Roman Catholic churches in Pattaya. Thanks in advance.

Noel Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 before the up roar PATRIOT ST <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Errm, I think that should be Patron Saint. So if St Nikolaus is the Patron Saint of Travellers, what or who is St Christopher the Patron Saint of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluto_manibo Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 St. Christopher is the patron saint of travelers. St. Nicholas is the patron saint of children...If I am not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salty Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Resurecting this thread after 2 1/2 years. I have been at Mass in St Nickolaus church on 2 occassions in the last couple of years over many visits to Pattaya. Apart from an increasingly elastic conscience the problem I have is the difficulty of getting a bathbus on Pattaya Klang. Okay going there but on return down Pattaya Klang great difficulty. Last Christmas ended up walking down to Beach Road. Nice walk in a moderate climate but in Pattaya: Sweatsville. On my next trip I will be staying in Jomtien. Is it feasible to get a regular bathbus up Thepprasit Road and another on Sukhumvit Road to the Church returning by the same method.? Any observations would be most welcome.

DickFarang Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Saint-Nikolaus Church in Pattaya is actually named after Sankt Niklaus von Flüe (1417-1487), a layman, the Patron of Switzerland. It is not the same person as the better known Saint Nicholas of Myra (270-346), a bishop, Patron of the children, the sailors, Amsterdam, Russia, etc., who is supposed to bring toys and sweets to children in the Benelux countries and parts of Germany on 6th December. In the States, Saint Nicholas of Myra was mixed up with the English Father Christmas to become Santa Claus. If I understand well, also Anglican and Episcopal burials in Pattaya are organized in the (Roman Catholic) Saint-Nikolaus Church.

Maybe you can ,but why on earth would you want to . Do you know what Irish Mother's were like? I do not want to be struck by lightning walking down the street. If I started praying for the sinners of Pattaya especially myself I would spend my entire holiday in the church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
