A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are close to my heart!

Prayerful greetings to you.

Greetings From India

My dearest friends, I hope everything is going great in the parish. Life here is hectic but fulfilling.

As Mother Theresa so beautifully puts it

“Life is worth living when it is lived for others”.

Almost everyday I am traveling a lot, meeting people. Feels tedious, but I am extremely glad that I could bring happiness in the life of others by my presence, which I feel happy about.

I was told that we could do better with the ABCD. May I request you all please come forward and pledge for the ABCD. As Fr. Tony mentioned when he introduced the ABCD, and I mentioned to you earlier, it’s the best way to support the diocese as well as any philanthropic activities of our diocese.  Learn more about ABCD.  Please do support to your maximum.

Missing you all. Looking forward to seeing you all. Please remember you are all remembered and prayed for everyday.

With lots love and at your service,

Father Sahayanathan Nathan

2020 ARCHBISHOP CHARITIES & DEVELOPMENT DRIVE

As we all know, we have launched the ABCD. Please come forward to make a pledge. Please support them.

May I take this wonderful chance to thank Fr. Tony for preaching for the ABCD. He was awesome. May God bless him and grant him a very long and peaceful life.

As he had mentioned, this is one of the best ways to support the diocese and all the activities of the Diocese like education of the seminarians, supporting the retired priests and reaching and teaching the most vulnerable in the society.

As we are all blessed, its good and our responsibility as well to support our blessing to our people. We will have a second collection to support the ABCD.

As Mother Theresa beautifully puts it

“GIVE TILL IT HURTS YOU”

Please remember it is not how big or small that matters but the heart to support the most vulnerable among us.

God bless your heart.

It’s election mode time. Everything we say and do will be perceived with a political outlook. But at the same time as the Church, we need to be the voice of Christ. Mother Teresa on the “Great Destroyer of Peace – Abortion. The passage below is the voice of Mother Teresa at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington D.C. on February 5, 1994. I believe her wisdom and concerns are so relevant today. Here you go.
