The church was destroyed several times but later reconstructed every time by the villagers. This church is a beacon of hope and strength to many followers and visitors alike. The church is full of lush green forests in the surroundings and has a pure white exterior which gives it a fairy-tale like impression. People celebrate the feast of St. Clara Church on 2nd Saturday of May every year. The Chapel was affiliated to the parish of Tivim. It became a fully fledged Church on 18th October 1805. At that time the Church had a parochial school and a music school too. Youth retreats held here also receive wide support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Church has five altars and the main altar is for Santa Clara. This Church constructed a hall for the parish and Village activities in 2001. The Church is popular for its Friday&#8217;s inner healing sessions that attract huge crowds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Browse our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/destinations.hinterscapes.com\/\">entire list of places to visit in Goa<\/a>&nbsp;with all the other information!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hinterscapes.com\/\"><strong>Hinterscapes&nbsp;<\/strong><\/a>to book your most affordable package of&nbsp;<strong>Off-beat Tourism Activities in Goa<\/strong>.
