    The church is big and is packed. The Priest speaks clearly & was enthusiastic delivering his sermon.

    I would suggest replacing the office admin that was made available on Wednesday , May 14. My family and I have been attending this church for many years…I love my place of worship. I was raised at this church.. ( I had inquired the admin about a baptismal affidavit for my new member to our family). When I had arrived and asked for assistance, I was greeted with a smug look and judgement. She would continuously interrupt me and speak to me as though I was bothering her. I understand that I may look a little different.. However, this should not be a place of judgement. I prayed for her.. I hope the Lord made her day better and that her heart will be softened.

    Hello, I am saddened to hear that Ms. Medina will not be the lead 3’s preschool teacher this fall. I had planned to enroll my two children (Maddi who is 3 and Brayden who is 4) this school year. I was going to have my sister in-law to enroll her son (Preston) for the 3’s classroom MWF. With Ms. Medina resigning , I do not feel confident with the current 3’s teacher in place. Parents should be concerned. This new teacher has little experience per my conversation with the 4’s preschool teacher. Please bring Ms. Medina back so my family and I can support Risen Savior. Ms. Medina is such a blessing and the preschool will be missing out.

    I just attended a funeral at this church. The pastor was extremely inappropriate talking about how all of us are going to burn in hell during my grandfather's funeral. I will be writing letters to the archbishop and the diocese over this extremely inappropriate and disrespectful behavior. I am extremely disappointed in Risen Savior.

    Beautiful church. I read a few reviews that were not nice. I can't figure out why because there were people present from many diverse cultures. Very nice ser1vice.

    I have gone to Prince of Peace and St John Xxiii. Risen Savior starts on time if not before. Singing sounds good and not tricky. Love the beautiful crucifix behind altar. Lots of young folks and lots of activities! I was impressed.

    There is a deacon named Mark in this church. Unfortunately he is NOT a Godly man but a Racist. He is Rude and refused to help me. I guess it was my skin color which is against God. People who really love God are NOT Racist. I DO NOT recommend this church because of people like him.

    My kids were baptized there. My grandma, my sister, and my dad and mom all had the services there when they passed away. I was younger when they were building the church. Father Baca was the priest at that time and his sister was a nun there also. My dad attended mass @8:00 faithfully as went as well. Great memories!

    Beautiful. Warm. The Mass, homilies are so inspiring. I dont know very many people here, but doesn't matter, smiles are of great value & long lasting. Jesus is our reason for coming together. Now that is forever lasting.

  • Gabrielle Trujillo7 years ago

    The church is nice, clean and the parishioners are friendly. However, every time we have been to the 7am mass and the 9am mass the gospel lecture is long and seems to go off into irrelevant information that looses people..

  • George Lawrence-Ell10 years ago

    My first visit for confession and mass resulted in a most significant moment. I can only explain by saying that in the 24 hours following my visit my entire life was changed. I was changed. Decades of confusion and sorrow left and I see a completely different life before me. I am humbled and thankful for God's mercy.

    Solid Catholic Church in the NE Heights of ABQ. Had a 4pm mass on Saturday so very convenient. Church is a bit dated in the layout and decor, but a faith filled community. The pews and kneelers are okay but definitely a bit dated.

  • Michael Wilhelmi6 years ago

    The pastor is very orthodox, however, many of the congregation have no respect for God's home. Before and after the Mass instead of having their conversations outside of God's house they are so loud one can't concentrate on the prayers he or she saying.

  • Stephanie K.3 years ago

    Their harvest festival is one of the best! They have bingo, a cake walk, costume contests, games and food. Very nice prizes.

    Love the Holy Mass and being able to receive Jesus 4 days a week. Fr. Charles knows his scripture and gives thoughtful and thought- provoking homilies.

  • Pamela Angeles5 years ago

    I went there for a funeral mass for a dear friend. This was my first time inside the church. It's a beautiful church and the mass for my friend was very nice. Amen....

  • Kathleen Beckman4 years ago

    Nice, friendly catholic church. The mass was pleasant and the priest had a great sermon. Warm people make all the difference.
