“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.”
-Mother Teresa
The idea of the formation of an institution to serve the poor and the needy in the light of the gospel value was brought up by both clergy and the laity during early 1981. The dream of the clergy and the laity became true and reality on May 28th 1981. With the support of the catholic bishops’ conference through the socio-economic development and educational centre (select) in Colombo, that coordinate all the diocesan activities in Sri Lanka.
The activities of this institution initially commenced activities from Madhu church. With the expansion of activities, services and emerged needs of these two civil administrative districts Mannar and Vavuniya. It started its function in the place Where it presently exists.
From its infancy state, it grew up, matured and developed as a service-oriented organization under the supreme and sincere guidance of our lordships and the former and present directors.
Community service gives us a valuable opportunity to walk into a different community that is less familiar to me but just as colourful and most importantly, in need.
