A Beacon of Hope at St. Antony’s Karunalayam
Karanchira, Thrissur – Nestled 23 kilometers from Thrissur Town, on the way to Kattoor, lies St. Antony’s Karunalayam, a sanctuary for aged women. Surrounded by a diverse community, predominantly Hindu, this home is more than just a place for the elderly—it’s a beacon of hope and light in their twilight years.
With St. Francis Xavier’s Church nearby serving as the Parish, St. Antony’s Karunalayam stands as a testament to compassion and community spirit. The mission here is simple yet profound: to rekindle joy and purpose in the hearts of our elders, those who have tirelessly devoted their lives to their families and society.
“We believe it is our duty as a society to stand by them in their time of need,” says a spokesperson for the home. “We have taken on the challenge to offer them all we can to ensure their happiness and well-being.”
St. Antony’s Karunalayam is not just a shelter—it’s a place where love, care, and respect are woven into the fabric of daily life, bringing light to those who need it most.
