Dear friends, Dexon and Anitha commented very well. Jesus is the real answer for the problem. Let us think what we can do
1) Is it possible Jesus Youth to organize all Kerala campaign against Suicides? 2) We have lot of computer professionals. Is it good for think about a web site-- fighting against suicides: Through the site we can give counseling, advises etc, We can catch our Thomas Achan also.. Our dear Pope recently said: use the possibilities of the internet Eddy chettan, Joseph uncle, Mathew, CC, Chackochan chettan please come forward with your valuable comments. Another point is Prayer Cell. Considering the family problems lack of communication and sharing is a main factor. Few months back I read in Sunday Shalom. Fr.George Panackal (Divine Retreat Center) commented about family prayer cell. Due to some kind of mispractices KCBC had stopped the prayer cells in the initial stage. Instead of giving proper guidance and control we gave up the beautiful Christian practice. It was our big mistake. Are we ready to realize and re start the family prayer cells? (We have family units in some parishes. It is entirely different from family prayer cells) I came Bahrain in 1995. Since that time onwards I am actively involved in our prayer group. In addition, Last 2 year I am a member of a prayer cell including 6 families. I am experiencing the differences very well. Through the prayer cell we know each other as a family member (more than a family member). Sharing the problems. encouraging each other. praying together. eating togeher.. Rejoicing in the Lord abundantly. Through the prayer cells we will grow deep in the Christian fellowship and definitely it will attract other communities. Let us pray for the Holy Spirit to strengthen us in the faith and love so that we may be like early Christians.
