Bantwal, Feb 10 : Recently declared quasi-parish dedicated to Infant Jesus of Pavoor Uliya (Mangalore Diocese) celebrated its first parish annual feast on 10th February 2019 with pomp and gaiety. Very Rev. Msgr. Maxim Noronha the vicar general of the diocese of Mangalore was the main celebrant with other 20 priests concelebrating with him.

It may be recalled that Pavoor Uliya a small island created lots of history by putting up a bridge with their hard earned money. Sad story of the bridge is that within a couple of days it was destroyed by the miscreants for some reasons and once again the people of Ulliya built it for the annual feast.

Nearly 500 people attended the Holy Eucharist and a sumptuous meal was served for all the guests arrived from near and far. Fr. Gerald Lobo, OFM Cap. the parish priest of Uliya thanked everyone for helping him to celebrate the feast and for all the developmental work which was possible only due to the generous contribution from the donors.
