One of the famous shrine in the name of St.Antony in Kerala... Very peaceful , soothing atmosphere...
Went there for annaprashan or first rice eating ceremony of my child. We went on sunday. Eventhough the ceremony used to happen at tuesdays, priest was willing to do the ceremony. We brought rice and pappad and the priest blessed it and fed the child. We spent sometimes in both churches; the old one and new one. The old church surroundings appear to be a temple.
