Dear NRI Parishioner and Naveen(?), if at all you know any one committee member and atleast had a casual conversation once with any one, your comments would have been far different!
I agree with NRI parishner. If we want to help then we can help directly not by troubling priest. So the job can be done easily!! Now you donated Rs. 200,000 but are you sure that money will reach one who really needed? If it will go by the influence of some committee members then the help of priest can be taken to identify the most deserving students. Any ways you guys did a great job but next time just think about it before only.
