A grand welcome awaits Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith today in Kandy with the Municipal Council making arrangements to take him in a procession from the Dalada Veediya to the St. Anthony’s Church.
Mayor Mahendra Ratwatte together with the Deputy Mayor and the councillors would receive the cardinal on behalf of the people of the hill capital, a council official said.
He said this was a historic occasion for Kandy because a cardinal was coming to Kandy for the first time.
Cardinal Malcolm will celebrate high mass at the St. Anthony’s church today. |
