Hi @paulswebca
Upon checking, it looks like the Yoast SEO sitemap that you submitted was detected by Google Search Console and is working as expected.
Unfortunately, your question is outside the scope of the support we provide. Giving SEO advice, in most cases, requires a deep analysis of your site to provide accurate advice for your specific setup, even for what may seem to be a simple question.
At Yoast, we want to help people improve their site and to make SEO attainable for everyone. So we offer Yoast Academy courses on all aspects of SEO, several great plugins, and a comprehensive SEO blog.
We understand that not everyone has the interest or time to learn SEO. Our main advice at this point would be to check for a local SEO company and see if they can help out. If you are using a web development agency, you could ask them, as most agencies have at least a basic understanding of SEO as well – the good ones do.
Hello Michael,
Thank you for replying. I checked search console, it is still showing 0 url discovered with /sitemap_index.xml (https://prnt.sc/slznp5).
So I added all sitemaps and it discovered all the urls but main sitemap does not seem to work. https://prnt.sc/slzo7y

We can see the sitemap is getting outputted correctly here: https://abbotsfordpunjabichurch.com/sitemap_index.xml. We are not sure why Google is showing 0 URLs when Yoast is outputting the sitemap correctly.
We suggest contacting Google for more information as Yoast is outputting it correctly. There is nothing on your site that would prevent Google from indexing the rest of the content. You may contact Google by making a post on their forums: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/webmasters.
