The ACTS community invites you to participate in our Quarterly Spiritual Talk meeting on January 30th between 6-8:30 PM at St Catherine's Siena Hall. Our objective is to grow our spirituality and meet new people. We will cover different topics related to our spirituality and faith followed by a potluck which will give us an opportunity to know each other in a relax environment. Please contact Martha Fer at [email protected] for more details.

The Dat of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) Parish Altar will be set up in the narthex from Sat., Oct. 19 until Sun., Nov. 17. Please bring a memento or photo of your loved ones to place on our altar.

At the end of April 2019, the State elected the new political party and the newly formed government immediately took over the sand distribution into its own hands. At last, the government declared a new sand policy but by then the monsoon season started and surprisingly the land experienced plenty of rain which made all the rivers and creeks overflow with the water, which in turn made the sand availability difficult for the builders. The monsoons finally subsided and sand extraction began and now we have sand in hand.   Now you can see the progress of the work. From this point on, if everything goes well, we should have the full structure completed by the end of December and the dedication by June 2020. Let’s hope and see that the things will go well, obviously not according to our plans, but according to HIS plans. Thank you all for all your prayers, patience and above all love towards the extension of St. Catherine in this rural part of India.   Sincerely, Fr.
