Blessed Feast of the Assumption

Mary's August 15th Feast of the Assumption was celebrated at Sacred Heart Mission with great participation of the faithful. Parish girls danced, other children performed scenes from Mary's life in skits, and visiting priests Frs. Aruliah and Mariadas were happy to see so much enthusiasm and devotion.  Around 500 people came in from surrounding neighborhoods to share an "agape (love)" feast, that was served in three sessions to accommodate everyone on mission grounds. People of all castes and ethnic groups ate and those from a Kakinada leper community were also welcomed and fed with care.
