La Sagrada Familia in Cancun, Mexico

If you aren't into the larger churches in the area but would appreciate the opportunity to participate in a religious ceremony while on vacation you might find that La Sagrada Familia, a small Catholic Church in the center of Cancun, is a great place to enjoy your Sunday worship. For vacationing Catholics this is a great bonus as well as others who enjoy the ability to participate in a religious ceremony of some sort when far away from home churches.

Mass at this church begins a little earlier than you may be accustomed to (the first starts at 7 am) with the preference being for worship as the first activity of the day, which is followed by many parishioners with a visit to the local market or various dining establishments. Mass lasts for about 30-40 minutes and the dress for these particular worship services may be a little more conservative than you are accustomed to. It is considered inappropriate to wear short skirts, shorts, tank tops, spaghetti straps, or sleeveless tops.

The most important thing about a trip to La Sagrada Familia is the fact that you are able to enjoy that personal spiritual time in a place that isn't as crowded as some of the larger cathedrals in the area that are often overrun with tourists and local citizens alike. If you are looking for a real opportunity to have spiritual time with God, then mass at La Sagrada Familia just might be the perfect opportunity for many visitors to Cancun.
