    Dear Fr. Augustine, congratulations for the wonders that the Lord has worked through you at Angadi. The spiritual preparations that preceded much earlier with a number of programmes with different themes indeed prepared the people for the finale. The outward celebrations were a sign of their inner faith that has now been strengthened. As Fr. Urban has rightly noted, it was indeed a well planned programme and a lot of hard work and efforts have gone into it and in spite of the rains and inconveniances, people were calm and that shows the level of faith of the people. I wish you all the best in your future endeavours to develop the parish further and take this opportunity to thank you for honoring the former parish priests and the religious who served the parish. God bless you and all the parishioners abundantly.
