Visited Goa on December 26. I saw the undecomposed body of St. Francis Xavier who arrived in 1542.

 

Similar to the Quiapo Church, they sold candles likened to parts of the body or the body itself which are burned in the hope that the ailing part(s) of the body or the body itself would be healed.
