Archbishop Girelli praises maintenance of 300-year-old Venduruthy church
Apostolic Nuncio in India Archbishop Leopoldo Girelli visited, among others, the Venduruthy church and the Basilica of Our Lady of Ransom at Vallarpadam, along with Joseph Kalathiparambil, Archbishop of Varappuzha.
A communication said Archbishop Girelli praised the way the Venduruthy church was maintained and its beauty kept intact. The church is more than 300 years old and built in the baroque style.
The altar of the Venduruthy church is carved out of wood and has been maintained well. The Archbishop said the church was a reminder of the history of Christian church in Kerala.
Vicar general of the archdiocese Monsignor Matthew Kallingal and Father Ebigin Arakkal were among those who accompanied the Nuncio, the communication added.
Sumit Nagal attained the 77th place in ATP rankings. As per the established criteria, the top 56 players, both in men’s and women’s rankings, will attain automatic qualification for the Olympics but no more than four per country can make the cut for the Games, a rule which allows lower ranked players to sneak into the draw.
