Where is the Mombasa Catholic Cathedral -- and how does it operate?

The Mombasa Catholic Cathedral, otherwise known as the Holy Ghost Cathedral Mombasa, is to be found in the Mombasa CBD. It is to be found around where Digo Road and Moi Avenue intersect. It is a beautiful cathedral, and one that is quite big on the inside though it looks small on the outside. 
To get to the Mombasa Catholic Cathedral using public means (from places like Changamwe, Nyali, Kisauni and so on), you need to take any vehicle that is headed to ‘Ferry’, then alight at the Kanisani stage where Digo Road meets Moi Avenue. Be careful not to be dropped off at the Kanisani stage in Mwembe Tayari: that one is the Mombasa Pentecostal Church. So there are two kanisani stages on that route, the one at Mwembe (for the Mombasa Pentecostal Church) and the one at the Digo Road-Moi Avenue junction for the Catholic Cathedral. The Mombasa Catholic Cathedral is quite close to the Mombasa General Post Office, and other buildings close to it is the Kenya Power Mombasa building and the TSS building.
The last time I checked, there used to several masses held at the Mombasa Catholic Cathedral each Sunday, with Daily masses in the morning, afternoon (around 1 Pm) and evening (around 5 Pm). 
At the entrance to the Mombasa Catholic Cathedral, you will find the Mombasa Catholic Bookshop, where you can buy Catholic literature as well as various other liturgical items, including rosaries.
