St Thomas the Apostle
Today is a very special Feast, especially for our Indian community. This is Because traditions tells us that Thomas; one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ, brought the Gospel Message to India. There is not enough written documents to prove his voyage and work, but the Christians in the Malabar Coast believe that their forefathers received the Faith from St Thomas. Many ancient writers stated that Christianity was spread in the Malabar Coast in the 1st and 2nd centuries.
We celebrated this special day in the best way possible, with Holy Mass. Then Mr Saju Paul came to talk to us about St Thomas. (Many Thanks)
We completed the evening with a game of rounders with somewhat dubious rules and finally of course our Night Prayers.
At every Mass, let us join St Thomas in his declaration of Faith, My Lord and My God.
