I have been attending this church for just over 2 years now, at the 5pm service and I love it. Such…read morea variety of people from so many backgrounds are ready to chat to anyone who walks in to visit. Don't at all be surprised if you meet an engineer or someone in the health profession (nurses, dentists, doctors, etc.) - it is not a requirement that you are in these professions, it just appears that many people have drawn together here. There are many families, couples and single people doing life together and you do really feel the community here. The 5pm service runs at the same time as a young adults group called Fusion, running from about 4:30-6pm, including dinner, during the school term. There's also a creche for the smaller kids that runs during the 5pm service. After this service, supper is had together in another part of the church so you can come have a hot beverage to warm you, nibbles to survive you till you have dinner and mingle with some truly genuinely lovely people. So, whether you want to come and meet Jesus, meet new people, meet a friend, or maybe you just want to ask a question or few, you will be more than welcomed.

The interesting thing about this church is that the bell tower was actually completed in my…read morelifetime. In fact, I remember for ages that the bell tower was half finished - not anymore. Anyhow, this is your typical Catholic Cathedral, which means that stations of the cross are presented around the walls, and there are also confessionals for you to let the priest know your horrible, dirty, and rather dark secrets (if you so desire). The church is rather nice though, and the thing that usually attracts me to the place really happens to be the art - I think religious art is cool, especially if done in the more traditional style, and the art in this cathedral is no different.

The city of Adelaide has a long held reputation as the 'City of Churches' and when you visit St…read moreFrancis Xavier Cathedral in Wakefield Street, you'll understand why. St Francis Xavier, in my opinion is one of our prettiest and most idyllic churches. Whether or not you're of the Catholic faith, a trip inside the Cathedral is quite an ethereal experience. You can't help but admire the architecture of the beautiful interior and no matter your faith (or lack of) it provides a place for private reverie that is matched by few others. Not only is there an actual quiet inside, there is an amazing mood of hushed calm. Despite my feeling of calm and quiet, the 'owners' themselves describe it as a busy place as it is after all a parish church and it is true because there's always an abundance of people inside - they're just really people in quiet reflection. Construction on the Cathedral began in 1851 and it has undergone a variety of changes and additions over the years. The installation of the tower didn't happen until quite recently in 1996. Interestingly the Cathedral wasn't considered 'finished' until the tower was completed which meant the ceremonial dedication didn't happen until almost a century and half after construction had begun. The church is open from 7.30 in the morning until 6.30 at night, 7 days a week and everyone is welcome to visit. There are several Mass services daily as well as Rosary and Confessions and the Church is available for weddings, baptisms and funerals. Alternatively if you don't want to be involved in any of the formal services, you can take a self guided tour at your leisure using one of the brochures available in the vestibule. Photographs are allowed - I would however take care using a flash if people are in the midst of prayer - and they do ask that you turn off your mobile phone.

St Theordore's Anglican Church on Prescott Terrace at Toorak Gardens is both a stunning church and…read moreone with interesting links with its local community. Named for Saint Theodore a Greek monk who later became the Archbishop of Canterbury, the church is of a basilican design and inside you'll see pillars supporting arches over the interior aisles. While the St Theodore's parish has been in operation since 1897 the current church was actually built in and opened as a place of worship in 1914. I love the fact that this particular church has a community spiritual garden where anyone can come and enjoy the garden 'oasis as a place of stillness and reflection, of peacefulness and beauty'. The garden was the brainchild of the local parish following a call from the Archbishop of Adelaide to make their church a welcoming place that was open to people from the wider community and provided them with an opportunity to explore their spirituality. The establishment of the garden has done just that as local community members who are not parishioners have helped in its development and upkeep.

I've always heard strange things about this church, with their passionate attendees, wild parties,…read moredevoted pastors and religious leaders and unique beliefs. I honestly don't follow too much religion, I am Catholic but I don't go to church or have anything to do with religion, nor a specific opinion really. My partner went along to an event with a friend once, and he said it was definately an experience.. Have you seen the movie Saved? I picture it being somewhat like that. Their advertisements and marketing seem to be very loud, over the top, extreme, devout and meaningful. They include songs, games, videos, concerts and other festivities into their service, which run daily in the morning and some nights. There are also services in the city and up north. Go along and see for yourself if religion is your thing, I'm sure it would be a memorable experience, whether you enjoy it or not.

For me, as a regular churchgoer, Paradise isn't what I'm after - I'm quite comfortable with a good, lively youth service at a 'regular' church, but Paradises 'performances' are one step further than I'm willing to go with my worship. That said, Paradise certainly reaches a lot of people each week - if you're looking for an in your face, over the top 'religious' experience, here's somewhere you can get it - personally I'll stay somewhere I'm one of the congregation, not one of the crowd. They do put on a great Christmas spectacular - lights, music, and a funfair of sorts - oh, yes, and a 'live' nativity scene - all topped off with a fireworks display at the end of the evening - worth a visit if nothing else.
