Picture this. Thousands of devotees immersed in prayers carrying wooden crosses of different sizes and ambling up a hill; a whole village getting decked up and readying itself to welcome these pilgrims. This striking sight can be witnessed at the St. Thomas Church located at Malayattoor when it bears witness to Malayattoor Perunnal. Celebrated in the month of April, Malayattoor Perunnal or the Malayattoor Feast, locally known as Puthunjayar falls on the Sunday after Easter.
