Bombay Archdiocese is among India’s oldest Catholic pockets on western coast. Some 500,000 of its Catholics in 126 parishes form a vibrant church community in India’s commercial capital Mumbai, formerly called Bombay. The city of 18 million people continues to be a Covid-19 hotspot since February and recorded some 85,000 positive cases and close to 5,000 deaths by mid-July.  The local Church, with its infrastructure and personnel, assists the city administration in fighting the pandemic. In today’s observations, Cardinal Oswald Gracias, the archbishop of Bombay Archdiocese, gives a glimpse of the work done since the pandemic hit the city.
