Abbey Church of Our Lady of Montserrat


Aside from the schools you will find along Mendiola Street, you will find a beautiful church, the Abbey Church of Our Lady of Montserrat. The Benedictine monks call it the Abbey Church while the community of San Beda College calls it the College Chapel. You will find the church between the monastery of the Benedictine monks and St. Bede's building. The church serves both the Abbey and the college.


Students, professors, staff, alumni and other pilgrims are regular visitors of this beautiful chapel. The silence inside the chapel makes you forget you are in the middle of the city of Manila.


If you want to have a glimpse and an experience of the monastic life, you may join the monks in singing the Divine Office and celebrate the Conventual Mass daily in the sanctuary. The following prayer services and masses are open to the public:
