    So many new faces, young and old, bring so much of talents to the Christian community of India. Its truly a blend of culture within the mainstream of secular India where Christians will continue to play an important role. Revival of old traditions, customs and cultures need be upheld at all times because it brings the proud history of the past so that the new generation can imitate it and improvise it with new colours.

    Congratulations and best wishes to all those who contribute so much for the enhancement of our culture.
