Novena Church Visit

The Church of Saint Alphonsus, also known as Novena Church, is famous for novena prayer devotions. It is not a parish church and is under the care of Redemptorists.

The Church of Saint Alphonsus was founded in 1935.

The current church was built in 1950 and was designed by the architectural firm Swan and Maclaren. Porticoes were added in the late 1950s to cater to the large and growing number of devotees coming for the popular Saturday novena devotions. The side walls that existed earlier in the main church hall were removed and grilles added. After 33 months of renovation and spending SGD 54 million, Novena Church’s redevelopment was finally completed. The church had reopened on 29 September 2017 with striking new Gothic-style.
