The Holy Cross Church grounds in Kurla, a suburb of Mumbai in western India, came alive on the evening of December 6 as nearly 4,000 faithful gathered for “The Chosen Encounter,” a Catholic faith experience inspired by the globally acclaimed television series The Chosen.
The Great Pilgrimage of Hope, to be held in Penang, Malaysia, from November 27–30, 2025, will gather Catholics across Asia for a journey of faith, dialogue, and renewal.
An ecumenical forum of Northeast India has recommended that Christians of the region watch The Chosen, a multi-season TV show (2017) about the life of Jesus. It was created, directed, and co-written by American filmmaker Dallas Jenkins in 2017.
