The Feast of Nithya Sahaya Matha (Mother of Perpetual Help), Tenali

We the Redemptorists celebrate the feast of Nithya Sahaya Matha (Mother of Perpetual Help) on 2nd of February every year for the convenience of our parishioners who are mostly poor agricultural labourers. However, this year we celebrated the feast on the actual day itself which is on the 27th of June.

Fr. David celebrated the Holy Eucharist and broke the word of God for us. Fr. Vijayanand, the Parish Priest also joined the celebration. About 300 people, young and old were present for the celebration which was celebrated at 6.30 p.m.

It was amazingly spiritual and many people were touched by the decorations. Especially the shrine of Mother of Perpetual Help was adorned with beautiful flowers. After the Holy Mass one of our parishioners arranged a sumptuous breakfast for all the people. It was both, a spiritual celebration and a celebration of oneness among the people of God. Amma (means Mother in Telugu) please intercede for us !
