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.

Holy Week is also called “Passion Week” begins on Palm Sunday and continues to Easter Sunday. Holy Week provided an opportunity for all the faithful to reflect on their personal sinfulness and their need for Christ and His sacrifice on our behalf.

What is Holy Mass?
What we do and why do we do this?
Vatican II, bulletin 1324 said the following: – The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life.” 136 ‘the other sacraments and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented towards it.
From The Desk Of Father Nathan | March 7, 2021
What is the Sacrament of Confession? Why do we need confession? What are the benefits of going to confession? The Sacrament of Confession is one of the most unique and beautiful aspects of Catholicism. Jesus Christ, in His abundant love and mercy, established the Sacrament of Confession so that we as sinners can obtain forgiveness for our sins and reconcile with God, our neighbors, and the Church.

We have just started the Lenten season. It’s one of the most precious and holiest seasons of the year… Let us try to know Christ and let us try to understand him. Please, make an effort to talk to Him and with Him through the readings of the scripture, praying the rosary as a family,
