Belle façade pour cette église fermée. Dommage...

Paróquia localizada bem próxima à zona turística do Porto. Estava aberta pela tarde de sábado e, além de ser um bom sítio para rezar e recitar o Santo Terço, é uma oportunidade para o turismo e permitir, assim, a preservação e transmissão do património religioso e cultural portuense. A fachada com azulejos é muito bonita e lembra ligeiramente a frente da paróquia de São Cristóvão de Mafamude (Gaia). O seu interior, bordado em ouro, é muito belo e reflete aquilo que devemos fazer nesta vida: oferecer o nosso melhor para Nosso Senhor. Os altares laterais e suas imagens, bem preparados, também podem servir como um bom apoio à meditação ou à oração mental. Uma das fiéis da igreja também me recebeu bem e mostrou-me algumas das peças guardadas pela igreja e sua Confraria, após eu ter terminado o Terço e eu ter ido explorar a paróquia. Só parece-me que o interior precisa de alguma restauração e pintura para garantir a plena preservação da igreja, mas tirando isso, foi bastante positiva a visita.
