We have a central mission :
To liberate the poor, the uneducated, the uninformed, the ill and
the marginalised.
Our Diocese was established with the three fold objectives : Evangelisation
Pastoral Care &
Development. This still forms the basis of all that we
do.
Our greatest wish is to encourage and to practice responsible stewardship
of all God's creation through care of our fellow human beings and
of our natural environment. |
Our strategy is:
To be spiritually alive, Professionally competent & Socially
relevant. |
| Evangelisation |
We have a responsibility to continue
the wonderful work of liberation through God's love started by the
missionaries in bringing the marginalized poor in remote areas to
the light of Gospel. By identifying new mission fields, especially
for the benefit of oppressed people, we have a living evangelism
that pays due respect to other religions in our multi-faith society.
Mission fields : Our mission for the Tribes and
other deprived groups of people like tea garden workers and Dalits
in the 51 mission fields aim at the holistic development of the
people for a meaningful living.
Delhi Slum Mission : Delhi Slum Mission in
3 centres is the outreach ministry of the Diocese to share the
love of Jesus to the most disadvantaged people in the capital
city of our country.

| Pastoral Care |
Because of the hilly nature of the Diocese,
our congregations are scattered over the
hills, valleys and the high ranges of the Western Ghats. In earlier
days, this led
to isolation and neglect of whole communities. Since the formation
of the Diocese,
effective Pastoral Ministry is at the heart of our work to strengthen
local
congregations spiritually, socially and economically.
Our vision of Christianity is based on prayer and Communion with
God our Heavenly
Father by serving the marginalized who are oppressed by poverty
and social systems.
At the same time, we believe that we must all play a dynamic part
in furthering His
Kingdom here on earth by caring for the marginalized and improving
our land . |

God feeds ..... we are channels only...
|

Our future is safe. |
| Development |
Through God's help we promote spiritual,
social, cultural and economic development
of the weaker, neglected and displaced people in our society. We
try to create
social awareness among our communities to promote self-reliance,
self-respect,
skills and personal growth. By creating and encouraging local leadership,
we foster
collective action and the development of community spirit. We fight
to ensure that
the poor and marginalized are not denied basic human rights and
social justice. |

One in Christ.. |

The road to Joy. |
