Shepherd's Voice

 
 

Hi! Thanks for visiting us. And we welcome you to Santvana family! 

Allow me to introduce the Santvana Community to you: We are not persons with great expertise or intellectual calibre. Nor are we a group of activists. I would rather introduce our community as … just…a group of simple people… sort of farmers. 

We try to cultivate love…. Each one of us has been drawn by the amazing love of Jesus Christ manifested on the cross and challenged by his strange new commandment: "Love one another as I have loved you." Our search is to know how he loved. Our struggle is to try if it would be possible for us to love as he did. Hhmm!!!…. Not that easy… A few do run away …. At times some of us say it is simply not possible. Then we are inspired to take a few minutes off…to look at the cross…. Later we find it happening. And each time as we succeed we cry out, "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us" (Rom 8, 37). Wow! It is worth trying. How true that verse of the Holy Bible is, "I can do all things in him who strengthens me" ( Phil 4, 13)! How beautiful it is for brothers and sisters to live together in love and harmony!! Our mission is to introduce every one to that mystery of love - Jesus Christ. We reach out through Eucharistic adoration and Intercession, Gospel proclamation and person-to-person Evangelisation. The harvest is plentiful, demands are high, and we need more hands. So, we look forward to your cooperation and participation in the mission of evangelisation.

May God bless you.
With love

Fr. Dheeraj Sabu IMS, Shepherd
