    • Reuben O. ★★★★★ Here is a very developed place, center of excellence and historical ground, it can also be accessed easily using Map
    • Simon C. ★★★★★ Am Anglican Cathedral at the heart of Onitsha: very close to the popular DMGS roundabout. The church building has a wonderful ambiance and architectural design. There are multiple buildings and event halls in the compound. In there is a lawn tennis court, volleyball court and a football pitch..... (The standard court is just the lawn tennis court though). There are gardens with seats that affords personal quiet times and small group stuffs. The compound is big and has a large parking space.

    • CHris G. ★★★★★ I recently had the privilege of worshiping at Capuchin Friars Minor Postulants' House, I attended the 7:30am mass on Sunday and the experience was nothing short of uplifting. The atmosphere exuded a rare blend of beauty and serenity, creating a divine haven for spiritual reflection. The parishioners were remarkably accommodating, fostering a sense of warmth and community. Their welcoming demeanor added to the overall sense of belonging, making the worship experience truly special. The choir at Capuchin Friars Minor Postulants' House deserves special mention, as their performance was nothing short of superb. Their harmonious voices, combined with a delightful blend of musical instruments, created a captivating ambiance that enhanced the spiritual journey. The incorporation of digital elements sets it apart, including televised broadcasts of the altar and a clear display of the order of mass, adds a modern touch without compromising the sanctity of the worship experience. This innovative approach allows every worshipper to follow along seamlessly and enhances the overall engagement. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Capuchin Friars Minor Postulants' House to anyone seeking a worship experience that transcends the ordinary. Whether you are drawn to the beautiful atmosphere, the accommodating parishioners, the superb choir, or the seamless integration of technology, this church offers a unique and uplifting spiritual haven. Don't miss the opportunity to be a part of this enriching journey of faith.

    • Chime N. ★★★★ This is a landmark in Omagba. It's one of the biggest Catholic Churches in the area. It has creche, nursery, primary and secondary schools, so that they both impart on your ward spiritually and academically... It's located at the center of Omagba Phase I and Phase II. There's hall for wedding reception and other events.
    • Ikenna M. ★★★★★ The Medieval Ancients built soaring structures, the tallest and grandest they could —which are impressive even today, see the Notre Dame— to honour the immensity of God and to transport anyone encountering these structures, as it were, to the greatness of this God. The builders of Holy Spirit Parish certainly attempted a similar feat, though on a smaller scale, with a lot of pluses. Approaching from outside, one begins to be taken in. In the clean and grand space, one finds it easy to pray to God. It is also quiet within and easily accessible from many points in the city for prayer. I was told that it was built over fifteen (or was it twenty?) years ago and, thus, was struck by the good maintenance that had been bestowed on it by its parishioners over time. The gallery is one of the grandest I've seen. Despite the massiveness of the interior space (large sitting capacity) its acoustics is better than that of most other churches. Came here for a wedding, from Enugu, and left impressed. Kudos!
