The Catholic community of Varanasi joined together on February 11, 2018 to celebrate the silver Jubilee of St. Mary’s Cathedral. A meaningful Eucharistic celebration took place at the cathedral at 10.00a.m. Archbishop Albert presided over the Eucharistic Celebration. It was concelebrated by the bishops of the region and hundreds of priests.

After the Eucharistic celebration, the artists of Nav Sadhana Kala Kendra staged a dance drama on the theme “Build a temple for me.” The script was written by Fr. C.R. Justy and the Lyrics by Thomas William Butterfield and Prabhat Giri. The performance scintillated the audience and the dancers received many rounds of applause from the audience. The dances were choreographed by Ms. Roshma Ruba and Ms. Neha Keshari. The programme ended with a fellowship meal.
