Christmas brings along the most sumptuous food and festivities. But every year we try to attend Christmas mass or choirs, and reflect on the year gone by. We hope you’re coming too.
Sacred Heart CathedralPeople congregate at the Sacred Heart at 9.30pm for prayers and it is one of the biggest in Delhi. They have a really nice service too, if that’s something that interests you. Post 12am, a cake is cut and distributed.
We love coming back to the service, for it has been around for quite a while now. The visitors and worshippers can cause white a bit of traffic, so make sure you reach ahead of time.
