Dear Belle ICYM youths there is only one winner not two.Please accept this fact.You will get more chances.I agree with the opinion of Vally,Alphonse and Akil.It is very sad that there are so many youths to sit and do other things.It is an eye opemer for the youths and leaders.Wish you all good luck.

First of all I would like to congradulate ICYM for organizing such a good program. Yes i agree our ICYM members are in finger count but still they can organize good programs. But it is not important. We should personally develop from these movements. Our ICYM achivement is there in members personal development not in our programs as well as numbers. Yes I agree getting MBBS, MBA and all is not everything but still its important for one's life. Yes Valerian i agree today we never want go out from our church gate. Whatever we doing only inside our gate. Then how we can keep contact with society? Once in a year we used to go out by taking christmas message, but now we stopped that also. Whatever it is better we come together and do something than blaming on others no?

Very good effort but how much time is required to fit the machine to each tree

First of all I would like to convey my sincere thanks to Dr. Eugene DSouza in bringing into light the magnanimous of noble services rendered by Fr. Vasant by publishing his profile. We pray to Almighty to give him courage to continue his services in spreading the message of divinity with the same spirit as in the past for the interest of the community.

Congratulations to the winners and congratulations to the organisers. What I enjoyed most is the lively discussion in the comments column. That is called parliamentary democracy. Only discussions can help us to progress. I appeal to everyone do not take any comments personally. They are required to help us to plan for the future and encourage others to join the movement. Never mind whether your English is good or bad. What matters is your input about any event. Cheers to everyone who commented. Keep up the good work.

Be Regular Repeated Altruistic Voluntary Donors which the act of kindness and altruism will make the bloodfriends more healthy. More women have to be motivated to bring the VBD a success. The drive for "NEW BLOOD" made by the Mogarnad Parish Catholic Sabha unit Chaithanya Foundation Siddakatte deserves high appreciation. We the All Kerala Blood Donors" Society (KEBS), Thiruvananthapuram "HATS OFF" to them especially the Bloodfriends donated blood for the mankind.

Congratulations to you. You made us our village proud.
Wish you all the success ahead. God Bless You.

Thanks Dr.Eugene for the detailed history of Moodubelle parish, a lot of facts I learnt only today from your article.

Hi Ivan, beautiful article! Congratulations.

Is M.V.Minicoy ship wheel chair friendly?

Wish you all a happy and safe journey to Holy Land.

Dear Youth of Moodubelle who are away from ICYM, This youth organization is a golden opportunity for all the youths to build a good career. You will develop many qualities which will help in your professional and personnel life to a very great extent. On the other hand i wouldnt blame on youth, they are very young. Parents should Support their children to go ICYM. Children will not be spoiled by going to ICYM, infact that would make them very strong in life. Finally, apart from the priests, i think there is a big requirement of a animator for the organization who will be with the youth always and guide them in anything they do.

Dear respected ICYM member, todays strength of just 15 - 20 members including just 2 ladies says the whole story by itself.

In Belle there are atleast 300 catholic youth from the age of 17 to 30 years, then why the strength is only 15 - 20 ?. Are there only 2 young girls in the whole parish ?Please understand, Bradley and his team is doing very good job. They have arranged a very good program of variety entertainment. We need to strengthen his team.
But where is the other youth of Belle. Why there is no concerted effort to bring more youth to ICYM. I am sure Pamboor parish is relativily a small parish but they have atleast 3 times more members than ours. In Mangalore there is a parish called Thannirbavi with just 100 -150 catholic families, they have more 60 ICYM members.
Try to understand the logic first. Rise from your sleep and work for unity. ICYM is the best platform to showcase your talent and the leadership qualities you gain here are useful for entire life. Only Bikes, jeans, restaurants and girlfriends are not everything. Work for unity and leadership. When you become mature adult like 25 - 30 years, then you will realize what I say now. Best of Luck guys

Dear Alphonse,
Please do not point out finger at members of ICYM for what is happening in ICYM, Belle. As pointed out by Mr. Valerian there are several other reasons why todays youth are away from this movement and losing a wonderful opportunity to gain leadership qualities at a young age. We Belleans, normally lack motivation. Now, from where it has to come is a question.
I congratulate president Bradley and all the members for initiating this event. As far as centenary celebrations are concerned, whole Belle parish lack enthusiasm. why point fingers at youth?

Congratulation Bharat.
Do you remember the fierce competition among Mr. Jayaprakash, me and you from std 8, 9 and 10 which ended up all of us getting Engineering seat (Jayaprakash - Civil, Prakash Acharya- Electrical Electronics, Bharat - Mining)in KREC, Surathkal which most Belleans may not know. But Jayaprakash opted for Medicine later. Now both of you are Doctors except me. I wish you all the best.

Respected member of ICYM Belle, you are commenting as if you are not aware of anything. Did you ever made any assessment/study/suvey to find out the reasons for having only few which can be counted by fingers. That too you have only two ladies members in ICYM at present.
The name is not important now. It is matter how you deal with situvation.
You could have done this programme with much more better way with proper planning. During this centinary year we cannot see much enthusiasm by ICYM interms of activities.
You will not get this opportunity to celebrate centinary once again.

RAJA AFFECTIONATELY SPECTRUM FRAUD RAJA IS A SHAME FOR NAME FOR TAMIL AND LOOTED THE COUNTRYS EXCHEQUER TO THE TURN OF NEARLY TWO LAKH CRORES. WHERE ALL THE MONEY GONE. UPA HAS TO PAY FOR THE SINS OF THESE SCAMSTERS. IF NOT THE CBI OR JPC THE GOD WILL PUNISH THIS FRADULENT TAMIL NADU MINISTER.

May the Lord Almighty bless Fr. Vasant and give him long life filled with divine, mercy, grace and love for others. I personally know Fr. Vasant since last 21 years. Thank you Dr. Eugene and the team for publishing the Profile of Fr. Vasant

Hey Simon, you moved every corners and reached every success. Wishing you many more pinacles of success path. I do remember our student\ s home living interaction, esp. the Basket-ball play-offs. Good to be in touch. Drop me a line at almeida.mark@gmail.com

Cheers!

Meeting Fr.Maurince (then a brother - 1975) was indeed was inspirational. Although he mentored me for a religeous vocation, my brief life at Holy Cross ever became the corner stone of my success today. Leading a balanced family life today, I am indebted to personal guidance of Fr. Maurices like.

Knowing as much, visiting Fr. Maurice s house (1976), meeting his people at Kodangala, helping him out at Shirva House set-up, meeting him at the Katapadi House, reminds me of his great simplicity, humbleness and inspiring personality.

Eversince our first meeting, I still cherish my constant interaction with Fr. Maurice. I need to wish him every succes in his endeavors as well wish him great health to continue on his mission.

(Comprehensive and inspiring article!)

Great article of a great person of Fr. Maurice. He has achieved many inspiring milestones. I began my life in Holy Cross as his student at Katpadi and after being ordained I had the oportunity work with him at Bangalore as the Aministrator of the Province and I really enjoyed working with him. He is a person of deep and great insights who can look to the future with a vision and Mission. Congratulations Fr. Maurice for all that you have achieved, my best wishes and pryers are there for you, do keep up your good spirit. May your example attract many more young people to come forward to build up His kingdom of love, peace and justice. Keep smiling always.

Thank you Akhil for raising the right issue. I fully agree with you.
I am a product of ICYM Moodubelle and I am greatful to this youth organization which has shaped my life and many others. Today I am sad as todays youth instead of uniting under the leadership of Bradley, are sitting outside and making fun of our own parish.

I do not blame todays youth, because they are not guided properly.

I blame the parents for not encouraging their children to join this youth movement. Getting MBBS, Engineering, Nursing or MBA or building big bunglows is not everything, give your children the taste of social service and leadership.
I also blame todays so called leaders of Belle, they do not have a vision instead everyone is busy in their petty politics and selfish motives.
Think big and come out of the cocoon, world is beautiful.
If we expect our priests to take the leadership, then we are wrong. They are not permanent in the parish, it is we the parishioners should build the society and leaders of tomorrow.
Today belle is lacking leadership and vision. Please rise from your sleep otherwise it will be too late.

Dear Alphonse, can u plz mention the trouble makers name ..! or else mail me to icymbelle@rediff.com we definitely keep him away. There is UNITY in ICYM.Without the support of member we can t organize such big program. So in this matter Ur wrong Alphonse.

Congratulation Rovita, being the Champion of the Year. Keep it up the good spirit. Our support is there for you. Expecting many more awards year ahead.

From,
Benny Mendonca Fly

Mr. Akhil, I do fully agree with your opinion. Youth needs proper guidence and motivation. There is no scarcity for talents in belle. please keep away the trouble makers and work in unity towards betterment of parish and society. Moreover Belle ICYM youth assist. director is also missing in the picure/ programme??

Nice to see the spirit of the students with colourful dresses. Requesting more and more students to come forward and participate in the sports activities.

Dr. Eugene has narrated this part of history in such a beautiful way that for some time i felt i am visualizing these incidents in front of my eyes.
Hats of to you Doctor.

Do they have a package tour. Do they have a calender of schedued travel dates for FEB-2011. To whom do we contact for bookings.Please provide details phone No and address of the travel agent.

Congrats to AAK. Happy to see Aunty Leena, Uncle Placid and Melinda. Looks like you all were having a gala time!!

Congratulations Guys, we are proud of you.Keep going.

What is the phone number for such a great bookstore?

AAK rocked at the Fifth Spark. Well organized programme and was a grand success. Eve-Olution dance-drama by Jovas XLNC )Jyothi Sunil) was superb. Fusion Dance (Duet) performance by Melinda Ferns Sharon Lewis, Marathi Dance by Vanessa and Vanida Castelino was mindblowing.
Keep up the great work, AAK vibrant Ladies. All the best AAK, for the future events.

Wish you all a very Happy and Safe journey to the Holy Land...

Congratulations!!! to all the winners and participants... Hats off to ICYM, Moodubelle for organizing such a great event. Thanks to Bellevision, Dr.Eugene and Mr. Anil for the wonderful report and pics. I was really fortunate enough to watch this event live.

Some things around which really made me think a little bit:

1) I could see only 2 youth ladies(Brenda and Adlin) in ICYM, putting their full-on effort for the success of the event whereas lots of other youth ladies of the same age group enjoying the event as spectators!!!
Come on youth ladies, You can(should) also be a member(active) of ICYM.

2)The same faces are appearing on the stage again and again even though there are many talents in ICYM!!!
I hope this event was planned well in advance and ICYM could have brought some new faces(new talents) on to the stage.

3)At the end of the event(Prize Distribution), I could see hardly 30-40 spectators from Belle whereas more than 100 people(Participants and Cheering people) from Pamboor!!!
Belle People, I kindly request you to support and cheer the activities of our youth.

ICYM-Moodubelle, Wish you all the very best for your future activities...

Congratulations Pamboorians, with the group you proved that age is not a limit for the talent.Vincy under your guidance let the parish grow many fold in all the direction. Keep it up, and Sritha you proved that you are the best MC.Thank you all the team members for achieving such a great nobility to Pamboor parish.

Dear Benny aunty wishing u a safe journey.

Congrats to Incha Saritha all our beloved pamboorians, Its vey nice to see you all winning trophy, We really miss you all. Good initiative from ICYM Moodubelle parish to conduct such inter parish cultural competitions. Well done all the participants.

Wishaing you all a happy n safe journey n pleasent stay over there.GOD BLESS.

cogratulations to Belle parishoners on the ocassion of centenery celebration.However,Belle church is still a faraway place for people from Edmer and surrounding areas.Also,ditto for people from Kodangala,Marne,Orwadi,Uddapadil,Kanaradi,Pernankila etc.It is right time to have 2 new churches for these places.With new churches,we catholics can have good unity,co-operation and therby become force against protestants to whom we are easy catch.Already,basel mission is running a prayer service regularly in one Lobo family.In the past several people have left our church in haste and it is our duty to bring them back to our fold.Our people are generous donors and i believe they will always help for GOD S WORK.
