A Forgotten Saint - A documentary on the life of Alvares Mar Julius (English)

The story of Bishop Alvares is heart touching and unbelievable. He was the first outside Kerala bishop for the Orthodox Christians. A bishop of many qualities, he suffered a lot for what he believed true. He was a pious priest a apostle of charity, a journalist, a educationalist, a prolific writer and a patriot who fought for his homeland Goa. A gem abandoned in a remote corner of Municipal Cemetery in Goa for 44 years, his tomb was discovered by Orthodox Christians by mere coincidence or was it a divine guidance from the saintly Bishop?
