Pictures From 2018
Gospel Convention |
|
In 2018, we had the first
Gospel Convention and Lenten Retreat. It was held at the Aramana
Cathedral. The whole area was filled. Learning from the experience, we
are holding the convention in larger quarters this year.
See photos from last year's inaugural
convention. Photos by Malankara World |
