Visit to the place of St. Thomas, the Apostle


 This is the Church which was originally built by st. Thomas....it has undergone many renovations...
 Mr. and Mrs. Alex, who are my friends who took me out to visit this church
 in the background you see the museum where many things which were used by the Apostle are preserved
 you can see here
 There are some books and Holy Bible in Syrian language
 These are some manuscripts on palm....
 This is the Bed on which he slept.....
 Sandals???????
 Various vessels used by him....

 Relic of the apostle
 The stone gives you the history ....
 The boat he used here in Kerala




 some of the instruments used by him



 The well from which he used to drink water....the belief is that the wells around go dry but this well never dries up....
 This is a small river....he seems to have taken water in both the palms


 Br. Edrian, working in the Garden....a good example for all of us....he is 81 years old....still strong....
