Christmas Mass

[madmitch]

As a devout atheist I have no idea where to find a Christmas mass but someone has just asked me and I promised to find out.

So does anyone know where to find a Catholic service on Christmas Day? The person who wants to know is French so if there's a French Church that would be best I suppose but any ideas will be welcome. They are staying in the Kata/Karon area but I did say they's most likely have to travel.

Actually I do know of the makeshift Finnish Church at the Arcadia Hilton but I don't think that will be up their street somehow!

The phuketcatholics.com website seems to be down at the moment, perhaps the good Lord has smote their webmaster or there is a plague in their interwebs or something, but there is a new Catholic church just up Soi 8 off Pasak Road in Cherng Talay.

Quite a swanky looking place with a big carpark, it just opened a few months ago. It's round the corner from my house and I see quite a lot of (I think) Filipinos going there and several non-Asians too.

Name is St Joseph's (not much for originality those Catholics eh?) Phuket News had a story on the opening party:

This is the one I was trying to find - I drive past it every time I go into Phuket Town :

Wish people would keep religion out of Christmas.......
