The 45-day-long decennial Exposition of the Holy Relics of St Francis Xavier at the UNESCO world heritage site in Old Goa opens today.
The miraculous life of the Spanish Royal of Navarre, educated in the University of Paris, ordained a priest in Venice, given the Papal Briefs of his mission to the Indies by King of Portugal John II, and who arrived in Goa via Mozambique, is being celebrated in this tiny State of India, Goa, in a very special way at the XVIII Exposition, 482 years after he stepped on this sacred soil.
