Between candlelight and silence, step into a journey about love. The first church in Asia named after St Margaret Mary Alacoque invites you in — to encounter the Sacred Heart again through light, sound, and quiet spaces for prayer.

The first church in Asia named after St Margaret Mary Alacoque

What to expect

Light, emerging slowly from shadow

An immersive walk-through of light, sound, and quiet spaces for prayer, taken at your own pace. In darkened rooms, the journey unfolds the life of St Margaret Mary Alacoque and the origins of the Sacred Heart devotion. Along the way: a personal audio meditation made for you, a quiet space to pray and light a candle, and relics to venerate — so you can pause, breathe, and look closely.
