Bishop’s Message
My dear Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ,
“We cannot keep ourselves shut up in parishes, in our communities, when so many people are waiting for the Gospel!” On 27 July 2013 Pope Fracis gave this tweet in Twitter. Internet is one of the media of coomunicating Jesus’ love. It reaches far and wide, it consoles the hearts from distance. Pope also told in an interview “Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.”
Let us use the good in this media.
I wish all those who enter this web portal God’s blessings and let this become a carrier of Jesus’ love and grace.
Rev. Dr. Selvister Ponnumuthan
