[JOYnet] The increasing relevence for the S.S.L.C programms
The increasing relevence for the S.S.L.C programms It is now 10 years that Jesus Youth have started what is called S.S.L.C programms . (though the program is for those who finished S.S.L.C) .In almost all the zones in Kerala such programms are being conducted in which very often 50-100 students participate. In Kanjirappally, it was called glazing lives 2002 , and in Palai and Ernakulam it was called Blooming Roses 2002. Taking the cue from Jesus Youth , some dioceses also have started to conduct programms for the S.S.L.C finished students . Now in Kerala, the importance of these programs are increasing because of the introduction of the +2 system in which the academic conditions are much more strict. Jesus youth is facing a real problemin in entering in to a +2 and start a new Prayer group there, unless already introduced and commited contact persons are not there. In the future the problem will be much more. The solution is that through effectively organized S.S.L.C programms Zonal/ Subzonal Jesus youth should build useful contacts with the youngsters, and they should be encouraged and supported to build prayer groups inside or outside +2's. Things will be more effective, if such programms can be conducted in the sub zonal level without missing the quality of the programms Chackochan Njavallil / KERALA / INDIA This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] News from Hospital ministry
Hi friends, We conducted a leaders training programme from April 30th-May 5th at Emmaus Ernakulam.40 participants attended the programme who were the students and staff nurses from different institutions. Initial 3days were of retreat and remaining 2days were of leaders training. Retreat was mainly based on charisms and its practical use. It helped them to identify their charisms and to get basic training to use them. The second part of the programme helped them to become more aware of the importence of prayer groups, how to build a prayer group and how can it be strengthened to bear fruits.All these lead the participans to take dicisions and to make specific plans to reactivate their prayer groups and to take initiatives to reachout nearby institutions.

[JOYnet] Please check the book .....
Please check the book . Recently in the Joynet somebody had recommended a book by Bobby Jose kattikad. It said that the book is attracting the readers interest very much, within a few months the third eddition is being printed etc... Till now I did not get the opportunity to go through that book or read any other articles by the same author . So I am not in a position to personally make an observation about that. Then why I am writing this . Recently in the Sunday Shalom Weekly, news papper , in a monthly colum which analyses the positives and negatives of current Christian Malayalam Literature , Magazine Articles , there was a negative statement about the ideas of the author .The main point was that it contains unchristian and mainly Buddhist, ideology / ideas. Eventhough the redability is very good , it may mislead the readers ,the writer was saying like this. I request some of you to throw more light in to this matter.

He is a God of love, laughter and happiness!

Don Bosco said "Run, Jump,play,laugh,sing ,shout but dont sin.." One of the funny things i encountered while reading the bible was this..(I hope no one is offended).

My Jesus too is the haha hehe type! I don't know a Jesus who's crabby and a dull witted. If Jesus was that kind, you can be sure he won't get me. he can forget having someone like jj to follow him. I've heard from the mouths of my father and Jos Mathew, Chicago "always develop a sense of humor! Don't look as though u've been baptized in vinegar and confirmed in sulphuric!" I love to hang around with people who have a fine tuned sense of humour. It improves my face value! The people who have made the biggest impact on my life were mainly people who have a fine tuned sense of humour along with integrity. I've got a gr8 friend of mine whos a priest, a holy priest. Sometimes I wonder if his middle name is spelt as H-U-M-O-R! He's got a great sense of it! For any sentence he can put a chuckle on the face of his hearers. I remember once I met him after he had a minor accident- he fell from a height and dislocated his ankle. I entered his room and he was there with a cast on his leg. I proffered my hand saying " I'm sorry father it seems u had a bad fall!" and he retorted in mock disbelief "oh no, don't get me wrong, I had a wonderful fall. only the landing was poor!!" Another time he had to board a train but due to the traffic jam we arrived at the railway station as the train started picking speed. We frantically tried to jump into the last compartment but unfortunately missed. He was a bit annoyed and he muttered. "these trains should never have last compartments, and even if they do have it should be somewhere in the middle!" After I came to the lord, one of the gifts he's given me is the gift of Laughter. I've learnt to laugh at myself. I'm a very impetuous person by nature. And a bit short tempered too. But when I look back at the follies I' ve made. I just sit back and laugh. Even when I remember some incidents where I was apparently hurt, laughter comes to my heart. Folks at home and other places have all taken me to be a bafoon. I've always been the butt of jokes for people around. Once I was so hurt becoz of the way people used to pull my leg. I went to my mom & dad and said "people are poking fun at me so much I'm feeling hurt!" and they told me with their parental wisdom" if you can't beat them, join them!, have fun, laugh with them too!" My parents may have been failures in other areas, but in this area they've been a thumping success!. All the half dozen of us kids have learnt how to laugh at ourselves. I've got so used to making a fool of myself and laughing at my follies that it just doesn't matter these days. There's this chorus many of you may know "Our God is an awsome God.." Well, i alter it sometimes and i sing My God is a funny God, He reigns from heavn above, with wisdom (humor), power and love My God is a funny God. (can u see a 100 watt smile across the face of Jesus?):):) Never take life too seriously; you'll never come out of it alive!ok. It is my humble opinion that people who don't have a sense of humour will have time in life only for inner healing retreats and nothing else!. I feel very sorry for such poor souls. Just imagine spending about 300 hundred rupees every other week for patching up the wounds that they've inflicted on themselves becoz of an impoverished sense of humor!!. Every Jesus youth should have a healthy sense of humor, otherwise you may soon be on the highway to bankruptcy, both financial as well as emotional, and there's nothing funny about that! Learn to Laugh! after all our Lord is a funny lord!

So u can imagine my plight when I saw she got nothing . The ONLY answer she gave me was "Unseasonal Rains ..no Good Fruits" SO true isnt it !! these trees rely so very much on the climate for farming fruits during summer & when the rains want to have its own way that leads to a disaster . God has made time for everything Time for sowing & time for Reaping Time for summer & time for rains . Time for mangoes ...time for berries If you are like The Unseasonal Rains & want to have your own way in your life today , know for sure that there are no Yellow Delicious Mangoes in store for you . God doesn't want to fast forword our desires .He wants us to Learn Patience & let us grow slowly & steadily in the same SO , let God has HIS own way in our lives so that we can have a great banquet of fruits day after day .

[JOYnet] MY first visit to Coorg
Dear Friends In the first week of may I had been to Coorg on the southern part of Karnataka, India for animating a Jesus Youth leadership seminar.There I got the oppertunity to meet a group of honest and sincere young people, who are really committed to the Kingdom of God. Most of them are workers like carpenters, autorikshaw drivers, tailors and small shop owners. Along with their work they find time to build the Kingdom of God in that area. The Coorg area belongs to both Belthangadi diocese and mysore Diocese. Of the 20 parishes in this area they are able to have prayer groups in 16. The first person I met there isVicent Babu, an autorikshaw driver ,and also the Jesus Youth service team member. He is married and is is soon expecting his second child.He said that in order to earn his livelihood he will work for 3/4 days in a week and the remaining time is used for building up the Jesus Youth network in that area.Other youth are also committed like Vincent. The JY activities in this area is initiated by the Thalasserry Jy in the year 1993. In 1999 they organised a youth convention in which about 750 youth participated. Now they are having dreams of building up Jy groups in all the different parts of karnataka. Antony is the co ordinatore of the new service team for Coorg JY. For the last two years Augustine was co ordinating the team. Both of them are carpenters. Another interesting person I met there is Seby, the Jy co ordinator for Mysore.He is working in Mysore as a Medical Transcriptionist. Now a days he is engaging only night shifts so that he will able to catch men during day time in the parishes, hospitals and campuses during daytime. The Jesus Youth groups in the Mysore area are growing because of the efforts of Sebi and his team. Chackochan njavallil/ Keralal/ india This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] A good Book to read
Priciple Centred leadership By Stephen R Covey Dear Friends, These days I was reading this famous book by Stephen R Covey who is also the author of Seven habits of highly Effective people. i found these two books very useful.. Throughout the book the author is repeating the theme that only natural laws of nature will work as far as self growth- personal growth is concerned. Artificial, personality development tactics will work only for a short period of time.if you want long range effectiveness and success in life, only a priciple centred will life will assure that. Pretention is not enough, we have to walk our talk. most of the personality development books are against the basic Christian values. but these books absolutely subscribe to the biblical values and principles. I strongly recommend you to read these two books by Stephen R Covey. One of my co worker used to say that this is nothing but Bible in disguise.

[JOYnet] Not too Exiting - Not too Dissappointing
The result of an expiriment. Not too Exiting - Not too Dissappointing There was a special gatherings of the B.SC nursing students of the Medical collage, School of Medical Educations at Kottayam and puthuppally, in which about 50 girl prayer group members came. It was aspecial effort to introduce them to the activities and ministry building efforts of the Nursus ministry. Genarrally the gathering went well. Main leaders of the ministry including co- ordinator Sheema M Jose, Leena(staff nurse), Aji Eapen etc..were present . Resource persons for the day included Joemon vargese (kyct)Mr.Joby cyriac, (Lecturer Marian College) P.U. Thomas (Tomas chettan from navajeevan) Ms.Celinamma (tutor at SME)and Chackochan Njavallil. Mr. Sebastian (Kottayam) lead the music sessions. As these girls were not at all familiar with the ministry functioning outside their prayer grups, it was not easy to communicate with them about the diffrent needs in thefunctioning of the ministry. At the end of the day the girls promised that they are ready to do thier best for building up the ministry, Ms. Aji Eapen, one of the central team members will be meeting with all the 50 participant individually, within two weeks for clarifing thier doubts etc.. Hope and pray that such an effort will bring out more people and build up the leadership in the ministry.

[JOYnet] Many MBA's and proffessionals in JY Leadership
Many MBA's and proffessionalsin JY Leadership At least two JY ministers in Kerala has got proffessionals in their leadership as co ordinators.. It maybe that god is alowing Jesus youth to be relevent to this generation and next by bringing people from all the diffrent fields. Can any other youth organization in India think of this kind of people in their leadership?. It is through those who were active in the proffessionals ministry that JY is spreding to other countries (including nurses ministry ). So if we want to spread to more countreis, the area which we have to give more attention in Kerala is the proffessionals ministry. Now as more proffessional educational institutions are starting in Kerala, if we work out properly, we could reap much more benefits in future.

[JOYnet] Hospital Ministry Programs
Dear Friends, Hospital ministry is conducting a leaders' training program for nursing students,working nurses& hospital staff from April 30-May 5 at Emmaus.The expected participants are prayer group leaders of different nursing schools&hospitals.The central team of ministy hopes that this program willbe a step to bring up next level leadership in the ministy.One of the core team members,Rani Antony from Kanjirappally is going to take a short term cmmitment of 3months after this program. Her plan is mainly to follow-up the new leaders after the program. Pleasepray for hospital ministry & for growth of leadership in the ministy. On 28th April, Hospital ministry is conducting a one day program for the B.Sc.Nursing students students of Medical College,Kottayam & School of Medical Education Kottayam .The peculiarity of these two campuses is that they aredifferent from the culture of other institutions. T he students enjoy more freedom than that in other nursing schools.This is actually the factor that lead us to think about a seperate gathering of these students to bring about leadership among them. If this program is effective,we have a plan to conduct 1 or 2 follow-ups as well as to conduct the same in some other selected institutions like Holycross Kottiyam & the other 2 ursing colleges in TVM & Calicut. Please remember the same in your valuable prayers Sheena.M.Jose Co ordinator, Hospital Ministry This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] Kairose and Joynet
Kairose and Joynet Kairose is the only youth magazin in Malayalam.It is published by JesusYouth as an outreach to youth. Through this media we want to influence a large number of youth with the message of the gospel and the transforming andsaving love of Jesus Christ. Eventhough it is published by Jesus youth, the reader target is the ordinary general youth. Kairos is puerly a youth initiative for the youth. It is being published from 1977 onwards. It is a group of young people from Calicut who initiated it. From 1998 onwards, it is being published under the sponsorship of Kerala Jesus Youth. Though indirectly Joynet and parablenet are contributing a lot to the succesfull publication of Kairos.Lot of beautiful and inspiring stories and experiences are being taken from the above two and transalated and published in Kairos. With out Joynet and parablenet it would have been much more difficult to continue publishing Kairos. It is now being published in A4 size, with 36 pages including cover. The editorial team is well convinced that this much reading material is not enough for young people to read for a month. Some of the popular Malayalam weeklies has got 100 pages and more reading materials per week. We have some dreams like that . This is a youth magazine, not only a 'spiritual' one We want to touch all aspects of life as far as a young person is concerned. There are diffrent ways in which you can assosiate with and assist Kairos. * Wehave found out that it is inspiring life experiences which touches young people most. So if you have such experiences, please share it with as. * You can provid us with any other useful materiels too. * Are you an intercessor . Kairos needs lot of prayer . To remain as relevent to this ages youngsters we need lot of prayer . Also pray that many are able to open thir hearts to share the money also for the purpose of supporting this special form of outreach to young people. The most happy thing to not is that almost 100 %.of the readers are happy about the material which is given in the maggazin .

Can you do any or all of the following. 1. Pray for the success of this missionary initiative. 2. Arrange the coming of youth from the dio's outside Kerala 3. Influence the people who can arrange the coming of such youth. ( Do you have some friends or priests, sisters who can arrange the coming of youth) 4. Meet the Bishop , youth director of the diocese, Provincials and other responsible people and impress them about the importance etc. 5. Any other thing which is appropriate in this case The details of the program can be sent to you separately. All those who are interested in assosiating with this endevour, please write to me. Your immediate help is needed. Already letters and reminder letters and details are sent to all the Bishops etc. All the expenses of the participants after reaching kerala will be met by the organisers. I request you to pray intensely for this endevour in your groups too. Chackochan Njavallil. Kerala Project Co ordinator ** This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] Surprising Response-Cultural Exchange program for youth
Dear Friends, These days we were looking for different oppertunities regarding the one month youth exchange program. Today there was a very surprising development. The Chanda diocese in Maharashtra is the adopted diocese of the Kanjirappally diocese in Kerala. It was the Catechesis department which was doing the follow up regarding the mission diocese as far as the Kanjirappally diocese was concerned. So we thought of meeting the Catechism Department Director and discussing the matter. It was with a bit of hesitation that we went to his office. We were not very sure about the type of response we should expect. Also we had some information that some youth had already come from Chanda a few months back and it may be difficult to do something for the time being. We went to the directors office and shared with him our plans about bringing youth from outside and enquired about the possibility of contacting the Chanda diocese for this purpose. The director immediately responded very positively and said that he will contact the Bishop then itself. But at that moment the Bishop was not available on the line. He said he will contact the Bishop in that night itself. At about 10'clock he telephoned me and told that he contacted the bishop and as the Bishop had asked for more details he himself shall write to him. The Lord is moving in mighty ways, is'nt so. Pray for the One month Cultural Exchange program for youth. Chackochan Njavallil ** This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] What Can You Do- One Month Cultural Exchange program for Youth
Dear Friends, For some time now I was writing to you about the One Month Cultural Exchange Program for Youth. I have already received very favourable reply from Gujarat and a few others also have replied. The coming of youth fromJharkand and Chathisghat states are almost confirmed. But regarding the other statessome other means will have to be identified. But a few interesting things have happened these days. Last week I happened to visit one of the Minor seminaries, nearby. There I saw a board saying that , that congregation has got houses in the state of Rajasthan. But at that time I was very busy and I had to leave that place, but I told the Superior that I have got a serious thing to discuss with him and I will be coming back again. Then the next day, together with the Kanjirappally JY co ordinator, I met the superior and discussed the matter and he agreed to sent letters to the priests in the state of Rajasthan. We hope that it will bring some fruits. The superior told us that, a congregation of the sisters from Kanjirappally also are having houses in that area. We tried to contact the provincial of this area, but she was not available. We have decides to meet her soon and discuss the matter with her and we hope that she also will agree to write to her convents in Rajasthan. Also the provincials of a cogregation who are having houses in almost all the states of the country are meeting in Cochin by the end of this month. We have already written a letter to the Mother General requesting to allow us to have an interaction with them during their meeting. We hope that they will agree to that request. Thase are some of the developments. Have you started praying for this. Have you started doing something for the Youth Exchange Program. With Love, Chackochan Njavallil, Project Co ordinator. ** This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] Youth Exchange- Copy of the letter to the bishops provicials etc.
Sub: One month Cultural Exchange Program For Youth Organised by the Jesus Youth in collaboration with Asia 2000. With profound gratitude to Our Lord who leads us by hand, we announce a Cultural Exchange Program For Youth which is scheduled to be held in Kerala , from October 6th to 29th , 2001. The program organised by Jesus Youth in collaboration with Asia 2000, is envisaged as a coming together of village/rural youth from various parts of India with a view to sharing and growing in spiritual life. Similar programs over the past couple of years have helped participants from various parts of India to initiate the building of a new youth culture in their regional environment and to encourage vocations. Participants will be led through a one week retreat in Hindi, will attend a ten day encounter programme in different parts of Kerala during which the participants will stay with families. The entire experience will culminate in their joining in with the few thousands in the Jesus Youth National Conference from 24th to 28th October. It would be a fresh cultural experience for the participants from outside Kerala, while for the hosts it shall be another unique occasion to experience the Love of Jesus. This endeavor, we believe is all the more relevant in the light of the Holy Fathers expectation that in the third Xtian millennium a great harvest of faith will be reaped in the continent of Asia. Please consider this as an official invitation for the participants of 7-10 youth (If possible accompanied by an animator) whose expenses for the 23 days after arrival will be borne by us. (We are also looking at possibilities to raise funds for the travel of youth from difficult financial background). We seek your prayers and gracious guidance to make this program a success. Thanking you, Yours obediently in Christ, Fr.

[JOYnet] With referense to what Dr. Anup has written yesterday
My dear friends, Each zone in Kerala is allotted with a state in the country for intercession and for taking missionary initiatives. But all the zones are facing almost the same problem as the Kottayam zone . If any one in the joynet can do something for the purpose of bringing youth from outside kerala (rural/tribal X'tian youth), it will be wonderful. If you are interested in doing something regarding the states other than punjab, you please write to me. I shall link you with the respective zones. (punjab people , please write to Dr. Anup directly) This endeavor, we believe is all the more relevant in the light of the papal expectation that in the third Xtian millennium a great harvest of faith will be reaped in the continent of Asia. With Love, Chackochan Njavallil, kanjirappally, kerala, india Hai to all at joynet, Hope you 've heard about the Jesusyouth 2001 Oct Conference.The preparations in each zone has started with a 100 day chain intercession.It is intended to cover houses of 100 fellow jy [one house each day] till the program begins. Wouldn't it be a nice idea to meet fellow youth from all over India during the conference.For this an initiative has been launched to bring in youth from each of the different states in India.Each of the 22 zones of Kerala had earlier spiritually adopted 1 state each as their mission outreach area and had started working there.Each of the zones will be trying to bring maximum youth from their mission area so as to give them an exposure to the various youth activities occuring under the Jesus Youth in Kerala.Apart from attending the OCt Conference they will be going to the respective zones meeting the people there and getting first hand exposure of the various jy activities there.Thus we intend to prepare those youth- through the jesusyouth formation -towards leading a witnessing life. Efforts have begun for the same and we at the Kottayam Zone had been given the charge of the state of Punjab at the NorthWest end of India.Until now we were not able to make any concrete step towards this other than starting to pray for the state.The lack of contacts over there has been a barrier.Pls let us know-- any jy working or studying there/any mission priest working there/any other contact person over there/any retreat center there/any charismatic prayergroup over there/ God bless you all.

[JOYnet] Motivated By Love
Dear joynetters, Thanks for the interest you are showing in the book 'Motivated By Love'. It seems that many are attracted by the name of the book itself . As Cukko has written earlier the major article in the book is the edited version of Priya's series in the Joynet titled 9th batch final gathering. The cover page also is appreciated very much which was designed by an active jy and campus team member from Ernakulam Mr. Sanal C A.(a young budding designer). Kochu Robin from Palai (another active JY) has done the inside lay out and that also is being appreciated. The first 1000 copies printed are already over and now 1000 more copies are printed. They say that this is the first book on jy in English. Some joynetters are writing to me for the copies. But it will be better if you can write to emmaus at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Actually this is the 4th book on jy, but the previous books were in Malayalam. Special thanks to a joynetter whose timely help which resulted in bringing out these books.

[JOYnet] Finally After such a long waiting, I 'am back
Hullo Friends, This is Chackochan from Kanjirappally, Kerala, writing after a long break. Nice to see that the Joynet is growing and growing. Because of different reasons I was not able to access the mails for the last four months. And now I had more than 1000 mails in my inbox and that created problems. Any way I went through most of the mails up to April 10th . By that time my mail box was full and it could not keep anymore. So I don't have any idea about what happened in this wonderful community from April 10th to June 5th. The problem was finally got corrected on that day but I checked for the mails only on last night. And I am really feeling happy now . In last februvary I was away attending a refresher course in Trivandrum and whenI came back we shifted our residence and then there was the problem with telephone. It took some three weks for them to shift the telephone to the new place and the connection was continuiously having some problems ( they say it is because some money was not given to the workers) .After that the problem was with the mail box. May be because of the large no. of mails it got struck. It is only after several repeated complaints to Vsnl that they corrected it. Now it seems that everything is working properly. Once again expresing my delight in being part of this family I conclude for the time being. Chackochan ** This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.
