Dear RajanL I wish to thank you for the new Blog you so unobtrusively introduced It comes at a right time
I did not know in which part of Goa the Cathedral was located ....it turns out that it is on the opposite shore from Goa THat itself drove a very strong message ...THe Apostle Thomas and his Companion all the way from Palestine tnto Afghanistan down ino Pakistan walked towards Bombay and then to Tamil Nadul where he was eventually speared to death. There were Christians in India,about 1500 years before ST. Francis arrived in Goa and almost two thousand years before any of the European Nations were Europeans ... Regarding your own Blog it is uniquely colourful, distinctly Indian and evocatively Goan ...who knows, it could be the primitive ancestor of a people calling themselves Megaglorians who fled from Goaland. You state the priest, Father Johann, was kind and welcoming.I wish I could take him to your home grounds...ICELAND ... he would have to wear something colourful ...he would be too well camouflaged if he wore a snowhite cassock Thank you for sharing Remain safe Grandolfo Makongo juu angaloreans olg... long longh e tall the and into Message: 4 Date: Wed, 13 Apr 2022 15:34:55 +0000 FrDear om: Rajan Parrikar <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: [Goanet] [Photo Blog by Rajan Parrikar] Marth Mariam Cathedral Message-ID: < cagnvrctkohqfc1v+80xzjpprpoo88kua2vk+r-2+3aj7xer...@mail.gmail.com> Photo Blog by Rajan Parrikar has posted a new item, 'Marth Mariam Cathedral' Good Friday week.
