The Iglesia de Muey is a Catholic church serving the Muey sector of Salinas. Muey (also spelled Muyuyo in some references) is a neighborhood or community area within the broader Salinas canton.

About the Church

Like parish churches throughout Ecuador's coastal communities, the Iglesia de Muey serves as a community gathering point for religious life. Catholic masses and religious ceremonies for the local community are held here.

The Muey Area

Muey is a small community area within or adjacent to the Salinas urban area. It has the character of a residential neighborhood with its own local identity, church, and community life.

Visiting

The church can be visited when services are not in progress. Local feast day celebrations and special services draw community members together for celebrations combining religious and social elements typical of Ecuadorian coastal life.
