Mangaluru, Mar 25: Commission for Liturgy and Commission for Social Communication of thediocese of Mangalore organised 'House of Worship', a half-a-day workshop on musical instruments on March 25 at Shanthi Kiran Hall, Pastoral Centre Mangaluru.

The workshop was organised in association with Music Square, Mangaluru, a brand shop of Yamaha India.
