India has lot of Christian Churches which were created decades ago and some of them are International pilgrimae centres of Christians. Various Churches named in the memory of Saints can be found which became famous with lot of religious beliefs and Mircales that happened including removal of diseases that were said to be un-curable. This hub consists of lot of information on the major religious centres of attraction in various parts of Kerala and in nearby states. There are Hundreds of Pilgrimage Centres for Christian devotees and visiting these places atleast once in our life time is a real blesing. Keeping aside all our chores and busy life we should spend some time travelling with our family to such places so that we can see and know about many miracles that happened in various parts of our country and how the power of God has been showered on some people.

Now most churches plan a pilgrim tour where we can reserve our seats in tourist buses and such trips are nice because we can see and enjoy seeing and praying at most of the churches that are located in many places, which would be difficult if we decide to go to each place on our own. Remember to take Photographs of churches so that we can tell others about our trip. i have visisted most of the churches in Kerala that has been recognised by Vatican.
