The Babbapally of Elamthottam has a vital importance in the history of Indian Christians. This is the only Church in India in the name of St. Antony the Abbot. The main feast of this parish is that of St. Antony the Abbot, which is solemnly celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of November. The Sunday after the festival is celebrated as ‘Puthary Perunnal’. Another major feast of the parish is that of Infant Jesus. For this, the flag is hoisted on December 25th and annual retreats conducted as preparation for these major festivals. Every year, on the 3rd Sunday of January, the festivity of St. George and St. Jude (preceded by a novena) are solemnly celebrated at Allapara chapel. 

In the month of May we celebrate "May Masa Vanakam" in honour of Mother Mary. On July 3 we celebrate the feast day of St. Thomas. In connection with this, there is the distribution of" Pachore'. It has been decided to celebrate the Parish day on every " Panthakusta" (Pentecost)
