The Christmas carol journey began on 06-12-2025 at St. Lawrence Ward, followed by Nithyadhar Ward on 07-12-2025. The programme continued on 13-12-2025 at Holy Cross Ward and on 14-12-2025 at Christ the King Ward. The final rounds of carols were held on 19-12-2025 at St. Antony Ward and concluded on 20-12-2025 at St. John the Baptist Ward. Each ward welcomed the carol team with warmth, devotion, and heartfelt participation.

A special highlight of this year’s carol programme was the active participation of parishioners from each ward, who joined hands with the Catholic Sabha members in singing Christmas carols. Their enthusiastic involvement added joy, harmony, and a strong sense of community to every carol visit. Together, the faithful praised the newborn Christ and shared the Christmas message with every household.

The melodious music and soulful carol singing were further enriched by the generous support of talented individuals. The Catholic Sabha sincerely thanks Mr. Jonson Pais for his beautiful contribution on the trumpet, which added a festive and spiritual charm to the carols. We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to Mrs. Geneview Fernandes for her valuable support in arranging the band, ensuring that the carol programme was well-coordinated and vibrant throughout.

The Catholic Sabha, Kokkada Unit gratefully acknowledges the constant encouragement and cooperation of all ward heads, ward representatives, and parishioners, whose guidance and support played a vital role in the smooth conduct of the carol programme. Their love and involvement truly strengthened the spirit of fellowship within the parish.

We would also like to express our sincere appreciation to the families who lovingly arranged food and refreshments for the carol participants at their homes. Their hospitality and generosity were a blessing to everyone involved. We extend our heartfelt thanks to:
