    What a beautiful occasion in honour of Sr.Mary Agnes at the Carmel Convent. What a lovely family that is blessed to send one of the nine children to the Carmel order. May God help Sr.Mary Agnes to be a praiseworthy nun so that she will pray for all of us in this fast changing world.

    Congratulations Sr. Mary for accepting Jesus leaving behind all worldly things. Dear ones believe me this world still there, just because of our priests n nuns who are praying daily to save this world. Jesus is ready to come again but we are not ready yet. We are still busy in minting money for the future which is not of any use after death. Jesus want us to share what ever he has given to us. There are so many in this world who don't have one time meal. The food we waste daily is enough to feed one family. When Protestants are giving 10% of their income to church we Catholics don't even give 1% as church support. During offering we will try to dispose the old note which no one wants. It's not the just prayers, but lot of noble deeds (Dayal Karnyo) Jesus expect from us. These nuns educated us, taught us our religion, after growing up we feel ashamed to wish them, change our way, so that they may not ask us for help or donation. Do we ever visit them when they grow old? My 1st Standard teacher Sr. Judith was old n was in nuns old age home near Capitanio, Manglore, I visited her few yrs before(now she is no more) n tears rolled into her eyes after seeing her old student. All brothers n sisters are educated by her in 1st std. The sacrifice our nuns n priest are doing no body else is doing. Despite that we never bother to send meal to our Parish Priest during feast or during function at home. But if the same priest delays the mass for few minutes our tongues will mingle like anything n we forget just few minutes before we received Jesus into our heart. Let's respect n love our priests n Nuns who are a gift to us from our Lord Jesus.

    Dear ones, World is going to end soon, so accept Jesus n save your life's. I am writing here the words Jesus told to Choo Thomas the last prophetess. Jesus himself met n told these words in hundreds of visions to her:
    "WHEN I WAS ON THIS EARTH I LIVED FOR MY FATHERS WORDS. THATS WHY ALL OF HEAVEN AND EARTH ARE MINE NOW. 
    SO MANY OF MY CHILDREN KNOW WHAT I WANT THEM TO DO, BUT THEY STILL LOVE THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD MORE THAN MY WORDS. THE CHILDREN  WHO LIVE WITH MY WORD, ACCORDING TO MY WORD, ARE THE ONES WHO ARE PURE OF HEART. THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO WILL ENTER THE MANSIONS I'VE PREPARED FOR THEM,LIKE THE ONE YOU SAW WITH YOUR NAME ON THE DOOR. NO ONE CAN HAVE BOTH THIS KINGDOM AND MY KINGDOM. IF ANYONE ENJOYS THE WORLD MORE THAN ME, HE OR SHE CANNOT ENTER MY KINGDOM. WITOUT ACCEPTING ME NO ONE CAN ENTER THE KINGDOM OF MY FATHER, HOWEVER GOOD HE OR SHE MAY BE"..
    These are the words of our lord, Jesus Christ.
