Indi's Only Greek Orthodox Church Centenary Celebration
People stand outside before Christians hold a special Mass to celebrate the centenary at India's only Greek Orthodox Church in Kolkata, India, on December 6, 2024. The church functions from 1924 to 1972 when it shuts down as the Greek population declines considerably. Father Ignatios, a Greek priest, reopens it in 1991, and the church has been functioning since. (Photo by Rupak De Chowdhuri/NurPhoto)
