PM Narendra Modi Attends Christmas Morning Service at Delhi’s Cathedral Church of the Redemption: Embracing Love, Peace, and Harmony
New Delhi, December 25, 2025 – On this joyous Christmas Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi started the celebrations by attending the morning service at the historic Cathedral Church of the Redemption in the heart of the national capital. Joining a large congregation of Christians from Delhi and various parts of North India, the Prime Minister participated in prayers, carols, hymns, and reflections that embodied the eternal teachings of Jesus Christ.
The service, led by Rt. Rev. Dr. Paul Swarup, Bishop of Delhi, included a special prayer for the Prime Minister, highlighting the spirit of unity, devotion, and community that defines Christmas. The Cathedral Church of the Redemption, an iconic neo-Gothic landmark built between 1927 and 1931 and located near Parliament House and Rashtrapati Bhavan, provided a serene and magnificent setting for the occasion.
Sharing his experience on X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi posted: “Attended the Christmas morning service at The Cathedral Church of the Redemption in Delhi. The service reflected the timeless message of love, peace and compassion. May the spirit of Christmas inspire harmony and goodwill in our society.”
Accompanying the post were striking photos and a video capturing glimpses of the service — from the beautifully decorated interiors to the congregation in prayer, and PM Modi immersed in the moment. In additional posts, he shared more highlights and extended warm greetings: “Wishing everyone a joyous Christmas filled with peace, compassion and hope. May the teachings of Jesus Christ strengthen harmony in our society.” “May Christmas bring renewed hope, warmth and a shared commitment to kindness.”
The Prime Minister’s presence at the service underscores his consistent engagement with the Christian community over the years. This includes attending Easter programmes at the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Delhi in 2023, hosting Christmas events at his residence in previous years, and participating in gatherings organized by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI) in 2024. These efforts reflect a broader commitment to fostering interfaith harmony, mutual respect, and shared values in India’s diverse society.
Christmas, marking the birth of Jesus Christ, is celebrated worldwide as a festival of joy, hope, forgiveness, and love. Beyond religious traditions, it serves as a powerful reminder of compassion, service, and brotherhood — values that resonate deeply across all faiths in India. PM Modi’s participation today sends a strong message of inclusivity and togetherness, especially at a time when the nation emphasizes unity in diversity.
As families and communities across the country exchange greetings, light up homes, and share meals, the Prime Minister’s words and actions inspire a collective resolve to build a more compassionate and harmonious society.
BharatTone extends heartfelt Merry Christmas wishes to all citizens. May the spirit of this sacred day fill every heart with peace, love, and goodwill. Stay with us for more updates on national events, cultural celebrations, and inspiring stories from across India.
