'The possibility of our children is our responsibility'

Every child born is a message of love from God
telling that God is still not fed up with humanity...

Like Jesus, every child should grow 'both in body and in wisdom, gaining favour with God and men.' Lk 2:52

Budget Presentation before the Finance Council...

The annual Plan and Budget for the forthcoming fiscal year was presented before the Finance Council. While clarifying some of their doubts, i raised the issue of injustice in let the present system of the parish to manage the entire burden of expenses when others enjoy the benefit of the school both in admissions and appointements.
This could be overcome when the other parishes were asked to contribute their share out of the 15% they were expected to spend for Education from their parish fund allocation. Also suggested a percentage from the teachers' salary for the maintenance and construction of infra-structure in the schools.
For this the V. G who was chairing the session objected saying that such things be brought before forums to get approved as a policy which i claimed to have done already. This was followed by my not continuing the presentation and i challenged the huge amount spent for the maintenance of the bishop's house without any policy or consultation even. For those matters which they think 'right' they can do anything with the support of the finance council and the bishop who are answerabe to one another and not to any one else in the diocese!
Thus i could raise some vital questions before the council, which otherwise no one would dare to do.
