Our Lady of Good Health-Velankanni

 

Velankanni Basilica Alter. There was a place by name Nadu Thittu located in between the Our Lady's Tank and the Basilica. A lame boy used to sell butter milk in that place. One day the boy saw a bright light and in the light he saw a Woman carrying her baby Son. She asked the boy to meet a person at Nagai and ask him to construct a Church for her. The boy hesitated, because he is Lame and Nagai was 8 Kms away. The Lady asked the boy to stand up and walk. Immediately the Lame boy was able to walk. People constructed a Thatched church at that place. Every one came to the church with sickness got cured and they started calling Mothewr Mary as Our Lady Of Good Health

Near by this pond which was in Annapillai street, there was a Banyan tree. Centuries ago, a boy used to take milk to Nagai. One day he sat under the banyan tree to take rest. At that time a Bright light appeared in front of him and in the light he saw a Lady with her infant child. She asked the boy to give milk to her infant child. The boy gave the milk to her and he enjoyed the baby drinking the milk. After some time the Lady with her Son and the light disappeared. The boy went to Nagai with a fear that the volume of the milk was reduced and for that reason his master may question him. But when he opened the lid of the milk container he found the container was full and it was overflowing. Immediately he announced this to every one and the people started praying to the Mother at the place where he saw the Lady.

 

Velankanni Besilica-This church was built by Portugese. During 17th century, a Portugese ship was travelling from China to India. The ship was caught in a cyclonic strom. The sailors of the ship prayed to Mother Mary, that if they reached shore safely, they will construct a church. Next morning they were in the shore of Velankanni. They constructed this church. Intially there was a thatched church at this place. As they reached this shore on 8th of September, the day is celebrated as the Church's feast every year and 1 million people used to participate in the festival.
