My parents were married at St Peters 29/6/1929, Mum was a Barnes, Kathleen Woods was her sister and the Woods family (Peter) are parishioners still.I have visited your beautiful Cathedral and city it left its mark on my heart.
I was brought up in the shadow of St Peter's .Was christened - made my first communion - confirmation-and married there I lived on Divis St -attended Boundary St school and St Comgalls. I still have the picture of Our Lady of Perpetual Help which my Mum bought at one of the lenten missions. I have fond memories of St Peter's. I was blessed with having two wonderful parents who are now deceased - by their example I still love my Irish Catholic roots. I was back a few years ago and visited the new church - it is beautiful and I felt as if I had never left. God Bless you for enabling us to see thru the website memories of home.
I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA. I attend mass with you often. Thank you for having me. God Bless.
I will be in West Belfast in March. Looking forward to attending Mass there. Hope the Boys Choir is singing. I don't go often enough but a great big pond keeps getting in the way.
Watch the BBC series on the NI Choirboys on youtube. Really enjoyed it. Even recognized some of the St. Peter's boys from my trip last year for the Libera show. My best wishes to the choir and I hope to see them perform soon.
Attended Schola Cantorum event at recent Belfast Culture Night in St Patricks - the outstanding "gig" of the evening without doubt. Mesmerising choir and sublime trumpet solo - feel smug that I got to this! Hope to attend more of Scola's recitals etc now we know about it. Many thanks and good luck.

Only saw your Cathedral from the outside on Wednesday night. So peaceful.
Many years ago I lived in Belfast and as a teenager, was in St Peter's a couple of times, but think it didn't have 'cathedral status' at that time - maybe I'm incorrectin saying that. What beautiful pictures,and congratulations on having the Scola Cantorum. Maybe I'll be in St Peters one day again!
Canada's West Coast greets you. Yes, you services are watched from very far away & much appreciated. The 8 hour difference is sometimes handy. Surrey, British Columbia, Canada
Just attended Easter Vigil mass at St. Peter's. By far the most beautiful mass I've attended in NI. Thanks for helping to make Easter so lovely. Brittany, Pennsylvania.
