Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Kakinada (Parish 2), Website www.sacredheartkakinada.org

The second Catholic Parish in Kakinada of East Godavari District of Andhra Pradesh in India, under the jurisdiction of the Arch Diocese of Visakhapatnam "Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church" established by Rev Fr Luke Kallakattil in the year 2004 and later stabilized spiritually and socially by Rev Fr Thomas Choorackal, Fr Anthony Antheenattu, Fr Peter Sebastian and now by Fr Varghese Kalapurakudy.

After Rev Fr Varghese Kalapurakkudi, who is very young, energetic, power-packed and above all tech savvy took charge as the new parish priest of this Church in June, 2014 the need for the presence of the Church in the World wide web was felt and he took the initiative to construct a website for the church to make known the world the different activities and initiatives taken by the Priest and the faithful in the preservation and spreading of the 'Faith' which is a gift of God.

The website address of the Church is:

Remain Blessed.....

Please Pray for the Vatican Family Synod which is in progress.

Our Holy Father and the current heir of the throne of the chief of the Apostles of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ, Pope Francis has summoned some 191 representatives of the Universal Catholic Church  including Cardinals, Bishops and some lay family people for a Synod to discuss about some hot-button issues.

As the Pope himself has asked for the Prayers of the devoted Christians around the world as the results of this emergency Synod may affect adversely the Catholic Church in connection with certain worldly issues.

It is already foretold by our Lord 2000 years ago that during the end times, many false teachers and doctrines will appear to mislead even the chosen ones and "When the Son of Man comes, will HE find faith on the earth"?

It is evident that the satan has succeeded to win some priests and religious to act as his hidden agents and thus to harm the Church of the Lord built on the strong foundation 'Peter' (rock).

Though satan is clever and cunning, he does not know that he will pathetically fail in his attempt against  the Lord and HIS Bridal Church, though for some time it may appear as if the victory is with him.

Dear Faithful, let us all unite in Praying for the Vatican synod 2014, that the Holy Spirit the Lord will enlighten the minds of every one participating in it and destroy the secret agenda of satan.

Priests, Start the Holy Mass with 'The Lord Be With you', not good morning...! Philippines Cardinal

The call by Manila's Archbishop Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle to the Catholic Priests of Philippines to  shun the habit of beginning the Holy Eucharistic Celebrations with the worldly greetings 'good morning' and to start the Holy Mass with the spiritual utterances, "The Lord be with you".

This can be followed by the Catholic and Christian Priests world over who have this worldly system of appeasing their faithful. 

The Greetings with Blessings, "The Lord Be With you" once said from the heart, contain the highest and most effective wishes one can give to the believers.

When the Priest wishes the gathering before the starting of the Holy Mass, his 'greetings' should come from his body, mind and soul with proper 'spiritual body language' and those who receive them also should reciprocate suitably by replying, 'And Be With your spirit' (earlier 'And Also With you')....!

It is very important to make every word that the mouth utters, come from our self ie our heart and soul.

May God Bless you all....

Blessed Chavara Kuriakose Elias (Chavara Achchan) and Sister Euphrasia (Evuprasamma) are elevated as Saints of the Catholic Churc

Followed by the Canonization of Blessed Sister Alphonsa as the first woman saint and the second person to become a saint from India after  Mumbai based St Gonsalo Garcia [who was born in 1556,desired to become a Catholic Priest, engaged in missionary work in Japan before being martyred in 1597 and was declared a saint by the Catholic Church in 1862], Now the Indian Church in particular and the whole country in general especially the state of Kerala are in jubilation on the declaration of two of its prestigious children loved by most of the backward caste people without any religious discrimination, to be elevated as Saints....!

The announcement of Blessed Father Chavara Kuriakose Elias, popularly called as Chavara Achchan and his disciple and nun Blessed Sister Euphrasia called as 'Evuprasamma' is a twin delight for the 2000 year-old Indian Church establkished by Apostle St. Thomas and the Society founded by Chavara Kuriakose Father, the CMI....!

Father Kuriakose Elias was not only a Spiritual and Religious leader of his time, but also played a significant role in the eradication of untouchability and many other evil practices that prevailed in the Indian society then.

To see his life history and all other information and images/pictures, details of his Holy tomb, the congregations founded by him etc. please check this official website of the Society established by the Saint CMI:
