There were great festivities in the Catholic parish of St Paul in this small town on 25 January 2005, the feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul which was celebrated by Christians all over the world. There was a solemn Mass and the recitation of the Rosary. The Mass was presided by Fr Diego Saleh, concelebrants included Fr Mario Rodriguez, and Fr. Joseph Paul. The liturgies were animated by parish groups of young people and children who sang the hymns and composed special prayers. The screening of the first Pakistani Catholic film Muhjza [Miracle], took place at St. Paul's parish compound in April 2006. The project was realized by Fr Arthur Charles, a priest of Karachi Archdiocese, who also spoke of having a Catholic TV Channel and radio station in the future. In 2009, Father Mario Rodrigues, who is also the National director of the Pontifical Mission Societies, was the parish priest. The parish is proactive in other areas of social welfare as well. In 2009 it supported a fundraising campaign of the Pontifical Mission Societies for needy Christians displaced by the ongoing anti-Taliban military operation in North West Frontier Province. (en) |
