Gereja Katolik St. Fidelis, Parapat

This catholic church just situated across the Inna Parapet hotel; sunday mass starts at 9:00 am, mass ends at 10:30 am. It is conducted on the day i visited in Bahasa Indonesia. Church run by Capuchins, i could also some nuns there, do not know which order they belong to. Music choir was very mediocre when compared to the usually good choirs of this Batak region. Church is planned for a massive remodelling for which they are collecting funds. I responded too for that call for a noble cause. This church is unique in one thing - elders are given preference to sit on the benches from the front, youngsters are the last, mostly they stand outside. Good gesture by all youngsters. I am not sure of the other timings for the masses. Good view from the church to the scenery down below.

Christian place of worship. There is a spiritual experience available when worshiping in this place. Church with a very beautiful view, green hills with pine trees and Lake Toba. Church with old buildings but very well maintained. For those who like worship and prayer with wisdom and silence, this church can be one of the reference places that must be visited.

One of the Catholic Churches that has stood for a long time. This church is cared for and guarded by the Capuchin order and is also a place to foster young Capuchins. For lovers of prayer and silence, this place can soon become your favorite. You will find inner peace and also get a view of the beauty of Lake Toba.

Very good.....

Even though you are on holiday don't forget to worship, near the church the view is beautiful.
