St. Bartolomeuachi Porob

The Parish of Betalbatim celebrates the feast of Saint Bartholomew today on 28th August 2016. This is one of the main two feast the Church celebrates , the other being feast of Our Lady of Remedios in the month of January. Nine LED TVs have been installed by the Church to help the congregation participate better in the Mass. This was possible due to the kind help by some generous parishioners. It is hoped that the mass will be more vibrant since the hymns get displayed on the LED TVs.
