CREATE A CULTURE OF CARE AND CONCERN

BÀ{ZXbpw IcpXepapÅ Hcp kwkvImc¯nsâ ]p\:Øm]\w

By REV. DR. VALSAN THAMPU

Our Lord Jesus came to this world not to be ministered but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Culture of this world was to despise the one who minister and Jesus came to create respect for ministering. During His public mission in this world for three and a half years, He responded to the needs of the people with great care and mercy.
