Grace - April 15th 2012



April GRACE Report

Around 70 elders and youth gathered together  in the Alvernia School Auditorium at around 9:00 am. The MC Jeena  ,along with Kochurani welcomed the crowd and  started the day with the Holy Rosary. Our resource for the day was Fr. Jose Anjanikkal. He is a very valuable personality, serving the Lord in amazing ways.

He is currently the chairman of Kerala Service Team and secretary of KCBC. He has served many years as Principal of various schools and has rich experience with children and adolescents. He shared many incidents he came across while being with children.He said that often adults, just like children long for love ,care and respect from others. Sometimes all it takes to solve a big problem  or misunderstanding would just be the kindness to listen to what a person has to say.

He gave us a strong message, to be sensitive to others around us and be caring enough to listen to what they have to say. We celebrated the Holy Mass at the Alvernia Chapel at around 12:30 pm with Fr. Jose Anjanikkal. After lunch,the music ministry entertained us with an action song.

It was followed by the next session by Fr.Anjanikkal. We had a very inspiring sharing by Tonyabout starting a new prayer group in Pollachi. Finally,we had a beautiful adoration session led by Fr. Anjanikkal. At the end of the day we distributed Easter egg and word of God and each person was asked to  inscribe the verse  which they received on the egg.Everybody lovingly exchanged their Easter egg  as a form of Easter gift to each other..

December GRACE Report


“My Grace is sufficient for you”. (2 Cori 12/9)

Coimbatore monthly 3rd Sunday program “GRACE” took place on 18th December 2011 at Alvernia Convent, Ramanathapuram. 7 more days to Christmas, it was really a blessed occasion for Christmas preparation for Kovai Youth & families. Another beautiful thing which made December Grace different from the previous programmes was that, it was a homely get together of the families of the Jesus Youth in Coimbatore. In spite of the distractions from the current Mullaperiyar issue and the hurdles in the Kerala-Coimbatore border, it was the “Grace” and protection (Ps:91/1) of the Almighty which brought the families and the resources from Kerala. Around 130 elders and youth, and our resource Elvischettan & family gathered in the Alvernia School Auditorium at around 9:00 am.The stage with a beautiful Crib for baby Jesus and the flying Christmas balloons brought in a real Christmas mood.The MCs Leo and Minu welcomed the crowd and started the event with the Holy Rosary. The Spirit filling Music session led by Coimbatore Music Ministry, created a warm atmosphere for the participants. Then came the most awaited sessions by Elvis Kottooran, senior JY elder and preacher from Kerala. He has a vast lot of experience in preaching bible and has travelled to many countries for preaching. He mainly preached on the changes that happen to a person life once he has received God’s Grace. His life itself was an excellent example for that. He also preached about the importance of accepting/suffering the difficulties of life as Jesus has suffered for our sins. He also preached the importance of knowing God’s will for our life. We always pray to Him to get rid of our sufferings and hardships, but most of us are not ready to accept and suffer together with his sufferings.

            We celebrated the Holy Mass at the Alvernia Chappel at around 12:30 pm with our Fr. Johnson Anthikkad, Coimbatore Jesus Youth Animator. After the lunch we had a small testimony sharing by Fina Maria, about the blessings that Lord has showered in her final year JY life at Avinashilingam Engg College and the blessings of the Holy Rosary in her life. The following session by Elvis Chettan mainly focused on the overflowing “Grace” from above. It was really an anointing session emphasizing that His “Grace” is above everything else, and the real focus of the Christmas season is  to be filled with the Grace like the Graceful Mother Mary.

            Then we honoured Fr.George  Narikkuzhy on his Ordination day. He addressed the crowd and wished a Graceful Christmas. Then we had a small sharing about the Orissa Mission by Jomy Chettan. During the evening tea, at the Alvernia Ground, our Santa – Deloy Chettan- came riding on a bike, distributing sweets and gifts. Then we had a Christmas celebration eve with carol music and action songs. It was made much colourful with our Santa caps stitched by Juli Chechi.  Then Christmas cakes and Word of God in silver rolls were given to everyone to share the joy of Christmas.Needless to say, it was another aninting event in Coimbatore where we really experienced the overflowing  Love, Grace & Blessings of the Most Holy Trinity.


Praise God

GRACE - Third Sunday Gathering / Feb


Next week we are stepping into the Season of Lent! The mark of ash on our forehead reminding us the truth of life.
Lent - In latin, Lenthus - Meaning the Spring season.
We all know what happens in spring.
The old leaves wither off…..
The new buds sprout out developing into fresh green leaves…
This marks the tree a symbol of new life…
We too step into the season of Lent.Let's wither off the things of evil nature. Let’s prepare ourselves for our Lord, so as to stand worthy in front of Him.
