Divine Mercy Shrines:
India is a land of Shrines. Divine Mercy Shrines with a living room attached where one of the senior couples or singles of the community could stay and daily conduct Divine Mercy Prayers and intercede for the people. It will surely draw many people to the Lord especially from the traditional cultural groups. This is a dream yet to be realized.
Publication for the teens
According to a study, about 25% of children are hooked to the internet. There is an urgent need to educate children, parents and teachers about the dangers of uncontrolled use of the internet, and especially about the danger of visiting porn sites. A weekly publication for the teens is aimed at educating children and the youth about its dangers and possibilities of social communications is a dream yet to realized.
Evangelisation Centre in Europe:
Europe has become a mission land urgently in need of new evangelisation. In this effort, Eucharistic adoration will be our starting point. We wish to empower the faith of young people and train them to reach to more of their generation. I think that Santvana’s School of Love, School of Prayer and School of Evangelisation will be of great help. We wish to organize cultural exchange, spiritual and health tourisms to help people to rediscover their root of Christian faith. Building friendship with people and inviting small groups for a dinner followed by music and short talks and a few minutes prayer will be another approach to transmit the Gospel to people. The Community looks forward to get a base in Europe to serve the cause of new evangelization by empowering people to transmit the faith.
Santvana Village: Culture of greed and love of comforts are leading people to build large houses causing enormous waste of natural resources. The modern culture is also cutting people off from a life in harmony with the nature. Simplicity of life, dignity of labour, sacrificing one’s comfort for the sake of others, a life of trust in divine providence, living in contact with nature, organic cultivation, preference for natural remedies for treatment of sicknesses are important values on which the life style of Santvana Village must be built. Building a model community that strives to live the Gospel, creating a culture of life, a culture of love is the goal of Santvana.
