Christmas Carols at Palanpur Parish
From
16th to 20th December 2024, a group of singers went to
Catholic families in Palanpur parish. Many faithful joined the group and made
it lively with Christmas carols and dancing. At the end a prayer was said for
the family and all departed after wishing the family. It was a joy to note that
most of the parishioners joined the group to give the message of the Nativity
of our Lord to the neighbours who are of other faith. Santa added joy to the children.
There was family spirit and unity felt in the gathering which boosted the work
of evangelization.
Children's
day celebration
On
22nd December 2024, children from Shulipani village came to Catholic
Ashram Palanpur along with their teachers and parents for children's day celebration
cum Christmas celebration. Fr. Julian has been reaching out to interior villages
of Virampur and running balwadis in this vicinity. The little children showcased
their talents and what they learnt from their regular classes. Fathers and sisters
from Deesa, Palanpur, and Vadgam gathered to encourage the children. At the end
all the children were given gifts and after participating in the fellowship meal
and visiting the church and grottoes they left for their villages. Kudos to Fr.
Julian for his tireless work!
