His body is preserved in a silver casket inside the church and is brought out for public viewing every ten years.

The interior is adorned with beautiful paintings and frescoes, including a large mural depicting the life of St. Francis Xavier.

The church has undergone several restorations over the years and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986. It is a popular tourist attraction and a place of pilgrimage for Christians from around the world. This church is considered to be one one of the best examples of Portuguese Colonial architecture in India.
