Church in Tamil Nadu, India
The Church of Our Lady of Snow is a Roman Catholic Marian church in Kallikulam , Tirunelveli district,[Tuticorin diocese], Tamil Nadu , India . It is one of the Catholic pilgrimage centres in India dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary . In Tamil 'Pani' means 'Snow' and 'Matha' means 'Mother'.[1] [2] [3]
History [ edit ]
People inhabited Kallikulam as early as 1700 AD. In 1770 AD, a thatched church was built in the name of Holy Mary by village people. In 1884, Kallikulam villagers and Jesuit Missionaries decided to build a new church at Kallikulam for Mother Mary. In 1886, a church was constructed in that place and consecrated to Our Lady of Snow. Every year, the annual feast of Our Lady of Snow is celebrated from 27 July to 5 August.[4]
Apparition [ edit ]
An oral tradition in Tamil Nadu states that on 29 March 1939 around 6.30 pm, six young people claim that they saw the Mother Mary appear on a hill near to the Church.[citation needed People from different part of India visit Apparition hill on first Saturday of every month.
