Parishioners of Nayabedda Parish, along with their Parish Priest Rev. Fr. Patrick Ithayakumar, gathered to celebrate Thai Pongal with a special Thanksgiving Holy Mass. The air was filled with the sweet aroma of boiling milk as the community prepared for the festivities. Following the boiling of milk, the Holy Mass was celebrated. The celebration combined the religious significance of the day with the cultural importance of Thai Pongal for the Tamil community, fostering a sense of unity and appreciation for the Lord's blessings.
