Warm wishes from your reader and well wisher from India. I am Fr. S. John Joseph, wishing all God's blessings upon you.

I am happy to take this occasion to render my thanks to you for publishing my request for school items for our poor children

Thanks a lot for your kindness and generosity. I am happy to bring to your attention that due to your publication, I am getting some school items and religious items too from some kind hearted readers of your magazine.

The school children are extremely happy to use these items and they all join me in thanking you and your readers for your charity and generosity.

We all appreciate highly your readers who have promptly come to our aid. We are praying for you all during our school assembly.

May the blessing of the Lord descend upon you and remain with you all. Once again we thank you and herewith we send our Christmas and New year wishes to you and to all your readers. We assure our prayers for you. Please keep us in your prayers.
