Message from Chaplain
Your Attention please !
Dear respected
members of the Malayalee Catholic Community
Vienna,
I would like to
bring to your concern and care of the tragic
situation in Kerala due to heavy rains and
floods. Mar Stephen Chirappanath has sent to me
a message today of the grave situation there. He
has requested that all the Syro Malabar units in
Europe must observe Sunday 19th August as Prayer
Day and give their financial contribution to the
most needed people in Kerala. This can be done
through the Syro Malabar Centre in Rome.
In view of the
request from Mar Stephen, I would request all
the members of the Malayalee Catholic Community
to observe Sunday 19th August as a day of prayer
in your families. We shall offer the Holy Mass
and Adoration for this intention on next First
Friday 7th September from 19.00 to 20.30 hrs in
the Stadlau Kapelle. As per the request of Mar
Stephen, I would request all Malayalee Catholic
Families to give your generous contribution to
the Project of Flood Relief in Kerala through
the agency of the Syro Malabar Apostolic
Visitation in Rome. I would request all the MCC
Parish Committee Members and Members of the
Laity Representative Forum to collect the
contribution from the Malayalee Families in
Vienna and give it to the General Convener,
Assistant Chaplain or Chaplain of the Malayalee
Catholic Community. The collection will be
received till Sunday 16th September 2018. The
contribution will be transferred on 17th
September to the Centre of Syro Malabar

for the suffering people in Kerala
