Dheepa Sigha Prayanam...

We the sons and daughters of Sinai Mount St. Thomas Church started our celebration from Malyankara, where St. Thomas came with the Good News of Jesus Christ by sea with the jewish merchants in A. D. 52. We solemnly brought the Fire of faith which was lit from St. Thomas Shrine at Malyankara to our newly built church. During the blessing and dedication ceremony when the time came to decorate the altar with flowers and candles after the blessing of the altar, we lit the altar candles from the torch  (Dheepa Sigha) we brought from Malyankara.
