A Catholic childhood in Sri Lanka

The author has vivid childhood memories of visiting the two stricken Catholic churches, St. Anthony’s Shrine in Kotchikade and St. Sebastian’s in Negombo and remembers the throngs of both Catholics and non-Catholics who flocked to the churches as petitioners. Now these powerful saints are intercessors for Sri Lanka. [1]
