Holy place #5 - Infant Jesus Church"
Infant Jesus Church is a Catholic church in Behala, Kolkata. It was founded in 1991 and is dedicated to the Infant Jesus, a statue of Jesus as a child. The building was donated by Sourin Roy to church officials. The church is a place of worship and pilgrimage for many Catholics in the Behala region. The church celebrates various feasts and festivals throughout the year, such as Christmas, Easter etc. It is a three storied building. In the ground floor there is an open space for gathering as well as a community hall and office. The main prayer hall is on the first floor. There are two staircases for easy evacuation of the crowd in case of emergency. They offer services in three languages like English, Hindi and Bengali. It also organizes various social and charitable activities, such as medical camps, education programs, and relief work. The church welcomes people of all faiths and backgrounds, and invites everyone to experience the love and grace of God.
Good Friday is one of the most important days off for the holy Christians. It is the day when Jesus died for us for the sins that we have done. He sacrificed his life by dying on the cross so this day is very most important for us as Jesus sacrifices life and after three days he again got resurrected which is another most important day for us this is the day where we fast we think of Jesus we visit the churches and we pray the whole day. Good Friday is a very important event in the life of the Christian Community and this is a great day for us.
It is not a place of worship for Christians only but local people of different faiths also visit the place on occasions like Good Friday and Christmas Day.
It is at the centralized location of many wards of Kolkata Municipality Corporation. As a result of that it is one of the most popular churches of Behala. It is just two minutes walk from Behala Bazar metro station and main bus stop called Behala Tram Depo.
