11:00AM Sunday Mass
We ended up at St Patrick Oratory unintentionally as we'd originally set off to go to Our Lady of Guadalupe (which is one of three Catholic Churches in the immediate area). We drove by Our Lady of Carmel which I assumed was Guadalupe, turned Google Maps off, got down and headed towards the church only to have the congregation spill out its doors - its Mass just ended. Only then did we realize we weren't at Guadalupe so we assumed that the church near Root Down (a popular restaurant in the area) was Guadalupe.
We got there and was somewhat perplexed by the sign - St Patrick Oratory - and decided that since we were already here, why not attend Mass. The church itself is pretty small and had that welcoming feeling. The Mass itself wasn't bad (any homily that doesn't grate my sensibilities gets at least a "passing grade".)
We actually felt St Patrick was our second favorite ... after 6 weeks, second only to Week 3's St Ignatius (the only Jesuit Parish in Colorado.)
