Palanpur Mission

 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!
