Cork: Representing Syro- Malabar Catholics in Cork, Mr. Dino George & Mr. Shinto Jose (Trustees) handed over a cheque for € 4000 towards the ‘COVID 19 Response Aid for India’ to Mr. Jerry McNamara, FC member of SMA Parish on Sunday. Parish Priest of SMA (Society of African Missions) Wilton, Fr. Micheal O’ Leary and Chaplain of SMCC Cork, Fr. Sibi Arackal were in attendance at the time.
The amount was contributed by the members of the Syro-Malabar Catholic Church in Cork, to support the people affected by the devastating deadly surge of COVID 19 in India. It was genuine support and cooperation from the members. Family Unit leaders took their initiative and efforts for the collection of the amount.
