St Ann's Church

    St Ann's Church , Bodiem

The St Ann's Church is situated in the village of Bodiem which is a part of Tivim. This church stands tall for very many years. 

The patron saint of the church is St Ann.
The actual feast day of our patron was the 26th of July but our ancestors changed it to the Second Tuesday of May to make it more convenient for the people because it rains heavily in the month of July and to celebrate feasts and enjoy like how we usually do would be difficult.

The church has fine architecture and is well maintained by the people of Bodiem.

You will see that people work hard towards maintaining the church and there's unity.

Opposite the church is a river that flows with scenic beauty around it which attracts people to visit it.

People of Bodiem celebrate every feast with enthusiasm and most importantly the feast of St Ann is celebrated with much greater enthusiasm. Everyone attends the novenas which begin 9 days before and spiritually partake of the feast.
