The St. Mary’s Syro-Malabar Community Graz made a blessed journey to Mariazell, the spiritual heart of Austria, for a Marian pilgrimage in honor of our patron, Mother Mary.

For the first time ever, the Holy Qurbana in Malayalam (Syro-Malabar Rite) was celebrated inside the Mariazell Basilica, led by Rev. Fr. Joel Koyikkara, parish priest of SMC Graz.

This historic celebration united families and faithful from our community in prayer and thanksgiving. The day was filled with devotion, music, and joy as we offered our gratitude to our Blessed Mother at one of Europe’s most revered Marian shrines.

After the Qurbana, our members joined in fellowship and captured beautiful group moments to remember this grace-filled day.

May this pilgrimage strengthen our faith and inspire the Syro-Malabar community in Austria to grow ever closer in unity and love under the protection of our patron, Mother Mary.
