Our Lady of Sorrows is the Roman Catholic church at Garrynamonie (Gearraidh na Mònadh) in the south of South Uist. Designed by Richard McCarron and built in 1964–65, it is a Modernist building of rendered brick with monopitch roofs, largely built by the parishioners themselves, and is Category B listed.
Inside are whitewashed walls, a sloping timber roof, a painted oak altar of the 1860s from the former Pro-Cathedral in Oban and Stations of the Cross carved on local slate by Canon Calum MacNeill. It is a chapel of ease within Daliburgh parish, with a weekly vigil Mass and services in Gaelic and English.
