    Congratulations Fr.Nelson. Every person seeks peace, Herbert Hover has said " Peace is not made at the council tables or treaties, but in the Hearts of men." May peace and joy will multiply in our life only through the love of God and love and service to the people.

    Congratulation Fr. Nelson. All world needs religious tolerance, peace and harmony.

    We should live in harmony and peace with all religions. But we should not follow what others are doing. We have to be firm in our faith. we should have knowledge of God's first commandment and what St. Paul says regarding the idol worship, food offered to idols and offerings. ( Corinthians ch.8 & 10 )

    In old testament & New testament people and prophets had been tortured and martyred for the sake of Faith. There is no compromise with regard to our faith and worship. Let us live in peace , Faith and harmony.

    There's a place in your heart
    And I know that it is love
    And this place could be much
    Brighter than tomorrow
    And if you really try
    You'll find there's no need to cry
    In this place you'll feel
    There's no hurt or sorrow
    There are ways to get there
    If you care enough for the living
    Make a little space
    Make a better place
    Heal the world
    Make it a better place
    For you and for me
    And the entire human race
    There are people dying
    If you care enough for the living
    Make it a better place
    For you and for me
    If you want to know why
    There's love that cannot lie
    Love is strong
    It only cares of joyful giving
    If we try we shall see
    In this bliss we cannot feel
    Fear of dread
    We stop existing and start living
    The it feels that always
    Love's enough for us growing
    So make…
    Heal the world
    Make it a better place
    For you and for me
    And the entire human race
    There are people dying
    If you care enough for the living
    Make a better place for you and for me
    And the dream we were conceived in
    Will reveal a joyful face
    And the world we once believed in
    Will shine again in grace
    Then why do we keep strangling life
    Wound this earth, crucify its soul
    Though it's plain to see
    This world is heavenly
    Be god's glow
    We could fly so high
    Let our spirits never die
    In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
    Create a world with no fear
    Together we cry happy tears
    See the nations turn their swords into plowshares
    We could really get there
    If you cared enough for the living
    Make a little space
    To make a better place
    Heal the world
    Make it a better place
    For you and for me
    And the entire human race
    There are people dying
    If you care enough for the living
    Make a better place for you and for me
    There are people dying
    If you care enough for the living
    Make a better place for you and for me
    You and for me

    Peace is the need of the hour. Broken world needs peace. If peace is our weapon then we do not need other weapons. Other weapons destroy. But peace restores goodness. Peace should flow from one another and heal the broken world. Thank you and God bless each and every one of us.
