Indore: Catholic society celebrates the feast of Christ the King

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The Catholic society celebrated the feast of Christ the King on Sunday where people came together to enjoy the feast and celebrate the occasion. In his sermon, Father Thomas Mathew said that Lord Jesus Christ had given a message of selfless love to the world. He said, “Christ didn’t come to this world for any particular person or caste, but to save the entire human race and every human being. He wasn’t a worldly king… he was the King who ruled over the hearts of men. That’s why, we’re celebrating this festival today.”
