Secretary Message

It's that time of year again! I hereby would like to welcome you to the redesigned website of The India Catholic Association of America(ICAA). I am very much looking forward to The India Catholic Association of America this year. It is truly a blessing and uplifting reward to work for the Lord. ICAA has a unique relevance and importance today as a common forum for the various Catholic Religious rites viz., the Syro Malabar, Syro Malabar Knanaya, Syro Malankara and Latin Catholics who are residing in the tri-state area. These Catholic religious members have their own parishes and mission centers, where India Catholic Association members are active participants and in many cases function in leadership roles. India Catholic Association, being the oldest and premier source, assumes the role of a melting pot and a unifying laymen organization. Consequently we have to be more out reaching and co-operative to join hand in hand with our spiritual and community leaders.

Success depends on hard work. Therefore, we all have to corporate and work. Therefore, we all have to cooperate and work together to lead our Association to its success. Our sincere efforts will help us to grow under one banner forgetting our differences and overcoming all our enculturation problems. One of my main priorities as the Secretary is to promote more charity.

I pray for us all, that our faith grows stronger in the Lord. May the Lord bless each of us and keep us safe. May the Good Lord bless each one of us and our families to grow in unity and love so that we may grow and spread His message to everyone.
