Dear friends, Its been quite sometime since I’ve written to joynet. Well, the reason mainly being I don’t have a compy at my disposal and the Intenet café’s here in the vicinity …tend to leave a hole in my pocket.
I’ve missed Joynet tremendously. But also I’ve learnt how to be detached. That’s something good I guess. I’m hear in Bangalore since August 14. Sorry I couldn’t meet any of the Jy’s here. I’ve been extremely tied up. I hope to come for one of the night vigils before I leave blore. Please do bear with me, Blore Jys. I’m here participating in the 3 months School of evangelization by ICPE India. It has been a beautiful time for me personally. With a break from family, job, ministry and other nitty gritties of life’s rat race. I’ve never had such a close time of sitting at the feet of our Lord and waiting on him. The theme of the school is based on Issiah 40:31…. ”They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagles' wings; They will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint. “ The first phase of the school was the input phase. We had different speakers speak on various topics. We’re now moving into the outreach phase of the school. I felt prompted to write to joynet coz today we had a session on prolife by Vinay Kamath. I watched one of the most gut wrenching documentaries I’ve ever seen on anti abortion. The name of the video is Eclipse of Reason. I heard someone in Mumbai has secured the rights to reproduce this film in India which otherwise is quite costly in USD. I don’t know the details, but I’m sure we can get them. Those of us into the prolife ministry. I feel it would be a wonderful idea to watch this film if possible. Well, Bangalore is a wonderful place with wonderful people. The climate hear is just heavenly. I get clean air to breathe. For a guy from Delhi this is a luxury. There’s a saying we commonly use in Delhi…” breathing in Delhi is injurious to health….”. They say 1 day in delhi is like smoking 3 ciggaretes. I'll stop with one of the captions i saw in one of the prolife movies about Contraception/safe sex/AIDS "abscence doesn't make the heart grow fonder but abstinence makes the heart beat longer!" (this was in relation to the myth about using condoms as means for safe sex) I once again apologize for my silence and hope to cough up some mails soon. Love u all in Jesus, Love and prayers and God bless, Josun Jose/Blore ----------------------------------------- This email was sent using FREE Catholic Online Webmail.
