Columban Fr. Tomas King was among the celebrants at the blessing of St. Nicholas Catholic Church in Nagarparkar, Sindh Pakistan in April 2018. Bishop Samson Shukerdin of the Catholic Diocese of Hyderabad presided over the ceremony.
The beautiful church is designed to look like a hut because residents of the surrounding Nagarparkar area live in huts. Fr. King ministers to parishioners in this remote area close to the border with India.
Below is a video of the church and the blessing ceremony.
The Columbans are a society of missionaries, including priests and lay people, who minister to people of various cultures as a way of witnessing to the universal love of God.
