Headlines - 2013

Dear Friends,
It’s Christmas again; time to renew our friendship; time to recollect the blessings we have received from the Lord and from people like you. It’s time to celebrate the greatest gift humankind has ever received: the gift of Jesus.  May I share the headlines of 2013?
It was indeed spiritually enriching to end the year and usher in the New Year during the Retreat I preached for Garden Sisters, Maria Sadan, Indore from 27th Dec. 2012 to 02nd Jan. 2013.  I am deeply grateful to Fr. Jimmy and the wonderful people of St. Callistus Parish, San Francisco for the awesome Pastoral experience in their parish from Jan 5th to the 13th March 2013, including Lenten Mission for the people. I was happy to be a Resource Person for Quality Leadership Seminar for Principals at Shillong in May 2013; Seminar on Value Education for Transformation of Life: Prospectus and Challenges at Allahabad Agricultural University in July 2013; Retreat for   Sisters of St. Ann of Luzern at Visakhapatnam from 6th to 12th Oct. 2013; It had been a great privilege this year again to be part of the NAAC Peer Team Visit to Secret Heart College, Tiruppattur, Tamil Nadu; Islamiah College, Vaniyambadi, Tamil Nadu;  Pt. Lalit Mohan Sharma Government Post Graduate College, Rishikesh.  I have been nominated as a Member of Regional Direct Tax Advisory Committee on 03.05.2013.  I have been appointed as the Parish Priest of the newly erected Parish, Divine Mercy Church at SAIT Campus on the 20th of December. I solicit your prayers and blessings.
