Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ (Mt 25: 40)

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ,

We the Malankarites in Kuwait through the channel of KMRM follow the Tradition of the Malankara Rite through spiritual, social, charitable and cultural activities. We realize that the fundamental nature of our Christian call is to serve the poor and downtrodden of the society everywhere. We are inspired by our faith for a process of self evaluation and commit ourselves more earnestly to uplift the marginalized in our society and to strengthen them in every way possible.

One of the main objectives of the KMRM is the charity program SANTHWANA which provides assistance to people who are in need, irrespective of caste and creed.  We intend to transform lives of these people through programs such as Emergency Assistance, Medical Assistance and Social Assistance. So far we have provided charity assistance of over INR 1.75 Crores. The success of our entire program is not only the good intention of the charity programs but also the transparency with which we have implemented all the previous Charity Projects of SANTHWANA.

SNEHA SANTHWANA is the charity program planning for the year 2011 through which we intend to give aid to two specific projects.  These projects seem to be to a great extent feasible and attainable within our capacity.

1.    Sneha VeeduA Home for the Homeless”

2.   Education Aid for Dalit Nadar StudentsChildren who are excluded from the Govt. aid, for backward community, because of their Christian Faith”

Fund for the above project shall be raised through raffle coupons / donations and we would like to have your prayers and support to make charity program of this year a great success. From the faith perspective love of God and love of fellow human beings are two sides of the same coin.

Yours Sincerely,

Rev. Dr. John Padipurackal  K.O. John Binu K. John Joseph K. Daniel

Reorganization of the Two Vicariates in the Arabian Peninsula 03.03.011

With effect from May 31, 2011, the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples has decreed that the Vicariate of Kuwait and the Vicariate of Arabia will undergo a reorganization of territories and a modification of title.

The Vicariate of Kuwait will be called "The Apostolic Vicariate of Northern Arabia" and will include the territories of Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. Accordingly, the present Vicar Apostolic of Kuwait, His Lordship Bishop Camillo Ballin, MCCJ, will assume the title of "Vicar Apostolic of Northern Arabia".

The Vicariate of Arabia will be called "The Apostolic Vicariate of Southern Arabia" and will include the territories of the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Yemen. The Vicariate of Arabia is under the pastoral care of His Lordship Bishop Paul Hinder, OFM Cap. The Gulf States of Qatar, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia are currently in the jurisdiction of the Vicariate of Arabia.

The two ecclesiastical territories have been reorganised due to the unequal distribution of the faithful in the Apostolic Vicariates of Arabia and Kuwait and because both the Vicariates have been entrusted to the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin (OFM Cap.)

From the historical point of view, Kuwait was formerly part of the Vicariate of Arabia. In 1953 Kuwait was separated from it and established as an independent Apostolic Prefecture. It was raised to the status of an Apostolic Vicariate in 1954. The two Vicariates in the Arabian Peninsula are being reorganised after more than 57 years.

The faithful are urged to keep this significant event in their prayers, at the same time asking the Lord for His blessing on both the Vicariates and all the faithful. May Our Lady of Arabia continue to intercede for each one of us at this special time. [Adopted from http://www.catholic-church.org/kuwait/]

H.L. BISHOP CAMILLO BALLIN'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
Bishop Camillo Ballin, MCCI

Dear brothers and sisters,

Peace be with you!

I am glad to wish you a Holy Christmas and a Happy New Year 2011. May this Christmas bring you happiness and peace with all.

Christmas is always the feast of the family. In my language we say: "Christmas with yours and Easter with whom you want". Especially on this occasion the solitude of many of you who have their family in their country of origin is felt much more. I invite those who have family here to invite into their homes, for lunch on Christmas day, somebody who is alone. Nobody should, on Christmas day, have lunch alone. I know your generosity, so I know that you will be very fraternal with others.
