Every donation, no matter the size, continues the works of mercy Bishop Iruthayaraj began — from schools in Tamil Nadu to boreholes in Zambia, from Saranalayam shelter to seminarians around the world.
“Charity is the sweet and holy bond which links the soul with its Creator: it binds God with man and man with God.”
