| IACA organizes all of its programs with the generous help of volunteers and funds each and every one of its programs -- pilgrimages, monthly novenas, christmas celebrations -- through donations. We truly believe that the culture of Catholics from the Indian subcontinent is unique and should be preserved even after they settle in the U.S. |
In order to promote and preserve this unique culture, IACA organizes several community programs each year, including:
- Mother's Day Pilgrimages to the Grotto of Our Lady in Emmitsburg, MD
- Pilgrimages to the Oratory of Our Lady of Good Health, Vailankanni
- Christmas Celebration
- Monthly Novenas at the Oratory of Our Lady of Good Health
| IACA has also collaborated with other Catholic organizations to sponsor programs such as:
- The Annual Potta Family Renewal Retreat (in collaboration with the priests from the Potta Retreat Center in Kerala, India)
- Asian Pacific Catholic Convocation (in collaboration with the National Asian and Pacific Catholic Organization)
- St. Francis Xavier 500th Anniversary Celebration (in collaboration with various Washington, DC area Asian and Pacific Catholic communities)
