  • St. Francis De Sales Feast Day: January 24Th Today We Celebrate St
    St. Francis de Sales Feast Day: January 24th Today we celebrate St. Francis de Sales, who was born on August 21, 1567 in the province of Savoy, France. He is the patron saint of writers, journalists, authors and deafness. He grew up, as the eldest of six brothers, in a wealthy family. His parents, François de Sales de Boisy and Françoise de Sionnaz, belonged to old Savoyard aristocratic families. His father intended for Francis to be a lawyer in order to take his place as a senator. He received his doctorate at law school but decided to join the priesthood and eventually became the bishop of Geneva. He was called, “Gentleman Saint,” because of his gentle spirit, and dedication to preaching through compassionate means. While working in the diocese of Geneva, he volunteered to evangelize Le Chablais, where the Genevans had imposed the Reformed Faith, by preaching constantly with zeal, kindness and holiness. He authored many publications (books, pamphlets, etc.), such as The Art of Loving God, Introduction to the Devout Life and Finding God’s Will for You. Many writings were addressed to lay people regarding the universal call of all Catholics to be saints. He was blessed in his ability to return Calvinists to the faith through his simple and clear explanation of Catholic doctrine. Furthermore, he used sign language to convert the deaf and helped found the Order of the Visitation, with Jane de Chantal. He had a stroke on December 27th during a journey, back to the diocese of Geneva. There he received the last sacraments and made his profession of faith, repeating constantly the words: "God's will be done! Jesus, my God and my all!" He died the next day, on December 28th, 1622; he was 55 years old.

  • Father's Desk
    Father’s Desk , Dear Friends It gives joy to everyone in Samarpanaram community to remember you all at this Christmas. Hope all of you are busy preparing yourselves for a joyful celebration of Christmas and getting ready to celebrate the New Year 2018, thanking God for the blessings, everything that came from God during the last year. Wish you all spirit-filled greetings of the season! I want to thank the scholastics of the new Indian Region for bringing this issue of the OSAI!I would like to make a brief reflection on Christmas! What is Christmas? Beautifully decorated Christmas-trees? Gifts wrapped in glittering papers? Arrival of a Santa Claus who dances to the tunes of the songs? Listening to the entertaining carol groups who sing beautiful carol songs? Elegantly decorated cribs? But these things were not there when Christ was born!! Then what is Christmas? Christmas is when Christ who was born in a manger, born again in your heart today! Christ who was God came down to our hearts to reign as king in our hearts! Christmas is the ultimate expression of God’s Mercy and compassion to each one of us. He came to live in our hearts. At Christmas God opened the door of Mercy through the incarnation event to let in the entire humanity into God’s Heart. That door of Grace is the vulnerable humanity of the Babe of Bethlehem. Come, Let us enter through this Door of Divine Mercy with our fragile human nature. His touch transforms our humanity to reach out, touch and transform the wounded humanity around us.

Another 300 have and perhaps the greatest of the Old Testament Prophets, attended our overflow Mass in the McBrady Center. With who ultimately despite all their wonderful work, in the end, seven Masses over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day (200 point to the coming of Jesus. Advent is a hallway of the capacity at each), the combined availability for all of these Church, It leads us to something greater, the main attraction, Masses only equals the amount of people who typically at- the birth of Jesus and the dawning of salvation. We are not to tend our 4:00 PM Masses. A real nightmare is 200 people stay in the hallway, but move through it to the celebration of just showing up for a Mass without registering and having to Christmas. We are not to get blocked by the trees, the décor, be turned away—as if there is “No room in the Inn”! the lights, the carols, the presents, but through them to see Pray for wisdom.
