Maula Cathedral

Experience African praise worship by taking part in a Catholic mass at Maula Cathedral in Lilongwe, open 24 hours everyday.
Expect a busy collective due to this cathedral's popularity (especially at the 8 a.m. mass) and its convenient capital city location. Quieter times for mass are possible (like at 5 p.m.), but the bustle adds to the communal atmosphere of the cathedral.

The cathedral follows the Roman or Latin rite and serves as the headquarters of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Lilongwe (Archidioecesis Lilongvensis) which was created as a diocese by Pope John XXIII in 1959 and got its present status in 2011 under the bula Quotiescumque Evangelii of the Pope Benedict XVI. It is under the pastoral responsibility of Archbishop Tarcisius Gervazio Ziyaye.
