Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, B Pallipatti

Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church is a Catholic place of worship in B Pallipatti with its entrance oriented toward the west and architectural features typical of Tamil Nadu religious buildings. The grounds include multiple prayer areas, with a shrine featuring a statue of Mary set into the hillside.

Fr. Charles Devin established this place in 1938 with a small community of Catholic families from the area. An elementary school had already been operating in the location for several years before the church was founded.

The parish performs a theatrical presentation about Jesus's life story that brings the community together for a shared spiritual moment. This event takes place in the weeks following Easter and draws visitors from the surrounding area.

The site is best visited during daylight hours when the light highlights the architecture and surroundings. The prayer areas are easily accessible on foot and offer a pleasant walk through the grounds.

The founder of the church, Fr. Charles Devin, was buried on the grounds and his grave remains on the right side of the building. His presence has become an enduring part of this sacred place.
