CATHOLIC MASS: EVERY TUESDAY AND SATURDAY AT 4PM 

A note about our Mass: Our Mass is a very ancient form of worship, unchanged for thousands of years in the Christian East, and will not look like your regular Sunday Mass. However, this form of worship at the Shrine is in full communion with the Pope and even fulfills the Catholic Sunday Obligation. The proper name for this form of worship is called the 'Divine Liturgy.'

In fact, our Holy Father Pope Leo XIV just celebrated a "Jubilee of the Eastern Churches" in May 2025 — honoring all Christians who celebrate the Divine Liturgy. Come worship God with us!

ABOUT THE SHRINE

We seek to further the mission of Mary, the Theotokos, at the Mary Undoer of Knots Shrine located atop Mount Lemmon, Arizona by drawing people to the Beauty and Light of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

We do this by... 

Inviting day-visitors to view the awesome beauty of the Shrine's Byzantine Catholic architecture, iconography, and spiritual openness to Mary's intercession.


Celebrating America's history of freedom with our iconic Revere Bell, pointing to the true freedom given by God.


Providing overnight self-guided retreats in our beautiful Shrine cabin called the 'Poustinia'.
