Sts. Peter and Paul Church, Muscat
The Sts. Peter and Paul Church is a religious building that is located in Ruwi, in the city of Muscat, the capital and largest city of the Sultanate of Oman, south of the Arabian Peninsula. This is one of the two Catholic churches found in the city, the other being dedicated to the Holy Spirit in the sector of Ghala.
The temple follows the Roman or Latin rite and depends on the Apostolic Vicariate of Southern Arabia. The original church was consecrated by Cardinal Simon Lourduswamy on April 4, 1977, thanks to a donation of land's own Sultan of Oman and religious tolerance in the country. Most of those who come to church are expatriate workers who began arriving to the place from twentieth century. Due to the increase of the congregation, the church was expanded with funds from the faithful and reopened in 1995.
