Prepare the Way of the Lord

News From Parish Priest
Dear Parishioners and Friends.
Our church has a tradition of 137 Years. Since it needs urgent renovation as there are enormous cracks one on the right side. Arch and the other sacristy, we need to renovate the dome of the bell tower too.
We are very much grateful to you as you always do, with your generous contribution whenever the parish requires.
May the Gods’ blessings and our guardian St. John the Baptist’s blessings be with you all.
Thanking for your anticipation.
