'... in order to discuss the ways and means to improve the function of ministries in the Parishes and Forane, ... a Forane wise one day programme for priests' of each forane is being arranged in the archbishop's house. The first to begin with was Thoothoor Forane on Monday, 26th July, followed by Anchuthengu Forane on Wednesday, 28th. And the third on the list is Kovalam for Wednesday, 11th August.
As usual, it seems to have been begun with the archbishop's talk which was over only after 11 a.m. That was followed by the Co-odinator's introduction and then the Vicar Forane's rather elaborate introduction. Then those priests who wanted to add had their chances. It was followed by the responses from the Directors of Ministries and the Executive Secretaries of the Commissions. I got my chance by 3.45 p.m.
In my sharing i was mentioning about the people's initiative, irrespective of the diocese. To this the archbishop rather apologetically responded that he had already agreed to give the money needed for the basic amenities to be made available in all the schools as directed by the Honourable High Court of Kerala. The floor felt that i should avail the offer of the archbishop and try even with the teachers though some of them were not in favour of any contribution.
It seems to be a good suggestion and i must try that.
