Dear Fathers, Brothers and Sisters in Christ Jesus!

May the Communion of saints bring the holiness of our

faith to the entire Church. Month of November reminds us

to celebrate important truths that build the Church. On

the very first day of November, we celebrate the “All saints

Day”. This is the ultimate victory of our Faith. The Cross

has brought its victory over evil. On the Second, we

remember all souls which have not, for one reason or

another, reached heaven. This is where we play a

redemptive role in the communion of Saints. We pray, offer

Mass and do lots of charitable works so that the Lord will

have mercy on them and take them to his presence. Thus

the Communion of saints is achieved and established. Let

us remember our Bishops, priests, religious and all our

faithful departed. This year we remember in a special way

Archbishop Michael Augustine who had pastured our

diocese. We also remember Fr. K.O. Abraham who had

left us last year.

We also remember the parents who had gone to the Lord.

May the Lord accept them as they had done a great

sacrifice in offering their children to the Lord. May they

rest in peace.

On 25 November we will celebrate the Kingship of Christ.

Under His Kingship the communion of saints is firmly

rooted. We rejoice and unite in the kingdom of God.

It is also a privileged month as we, priests will be having

our annual retreat at Poondi shrine. Let us prepare and

attend this spiritual renewal without failure. This will go

a long way to build the Church in the diocese of Vellore.

We are happy that finally the synod on ‘the young’ has

come to an end. It was a great experience to the Church.

Holy Father has certainly injected a lot of enthusiasm in

the Church. It was really a moment of grace for the Church.

In fact the Synod has invited the entire youth for a life of

holiness. Let us accept the call and assist our young.

In a Letter addressed to young people of the whole world,

the Synod Fathers invite the young to “be a brighter

future.”

We the Synod Fathers now address you, young people of

the world, with a word of hope, trust and consolation. In

these days, we have gathered together to hear the voice

of Jesus, “the eternally young Christ”, and to recognize in

Him your many voices, your shouts of exultation, your

cries, and your moments of silence.

We are familiar with your inner searching, the joys and

hopes, the pain and anguish that make up your longings.

Now we want you to hear a word from us: we wish to be

sharers in your joy, so that your expectations may come

to life. We are certain that with your enthusiasm for life,

you will be ready to get involved so that your dreams may

be realized and take shape in your history.

Our weaknesses should not deter you; our frailties and

sins must not be an obstacle for your trust. The Church is

your mother; she does not abandon you; she is ready to

accompany you on new roads, on higher paths where the

winds of the Spirit blow stronger – sweeping away the

mists of indifference, superficiality and discouragement.

When the world that God so loved, that he gave us his

only Son, Jesus, is focused on material things, on short-

term successes, on pleasures, and when the world crushes

the weakest, you must help it to rise up again and to turn

its gaze towards love, beauty, truth and justice once more.

For a month, we have walked together with some of you

and with many others who have been united to us through

prayer and affection. We wish to continue the journey

now in every part of the earth where the Lord Jesus sends

us as missionary disciples.

The Church and the world urgently need your enthusiasm.

Be sure to make the most fragile people, the poor and

those wounded by life your traveling companions.

their holiness and communion.

Information From Bishop Devadass Ambrose

With great sadness I inform you that, effective immediately,

Rev . Fr. Anthony Balthasar who is serving as the Parish

Priest of Mandalakottai in the Diocese of Thanjavur, after

consulting the College of Consulters, is suspended from

all acts of the power of order and governance in accordance

with CIC, c. 1333-1 # 1,2,3.

This action is taken after seeing that the charges leveled

against Rev. Fr. Anthony Balthasar are serious, scandalous

and his imprudent behavior has caused grave scandal and

bad name for the Catholic Church and the Diocese of

Thanjavur.

A Decree has been issued on 29.09.2018 preventing him

from celebrating mass and other Sacraments with

immediate effect.

Bishop of Thanjavur
