Message from the Procurator General

Welcome to the official digital platform of the St. Joseph Vaz National Shrine, Mahagalgamuwa.

In my role as Procurator General, I am privileged to oversee the temporal goods and the physical development of our Diocese. The St. Joseph Vaz National Shrine is a project of great spiritual and historical significance, and our mission is to ensure that its facilities, grounds, and resources are managed with the highest standard of stewardship to serve you, the pilgrim.

Every stone laid and every project initiated at Mahagalgamuwa is aimed at creating a prayerful environment where devotees can encounter the divine. This website serves as a transparent bridge between the Shrine’s administration and our global family of benefactors. Through your generous support and our careful management, we continue to preserve the sanctity of the Ebony Cross and enhance the experience for the thousands who journey here.

We invite you to be a part of this mission. Whether through prayer, pilgrimage, or contribution, your involvement helps us maintain this sacred sanctuary for future generations. May the administrative and spiritual work of this Shrine continue to flourish through the intercession of St. Joseph Vaz.

Blessings and Peace.
