Catholics in Katuwapitiya, Card Ranjith want the truth about the Easter Sunday massacres

By Melani Manel Perera Members of the Katuwapitiya Catholic parish staged a protest against the slow pace of the investigation into the 2019 Easter Sunday attacks. Card Malcolm Ranjith, Archbishop of Colombo, Auxiliary Bishop Anthony Jayakody, and several priests expressed their support for the initiative. Catholics in Katuwapitiya are upset by the lack of clarity on the part of the government, which has not yet released the findings of the Presidential Commission nor paid out any compensation to the victims. During last Saturday’s rally, the families affected by the tragedy protested against the government panel appointed to review the report drafted by the Presidential Commission.

Christmas in Kandy: The Catholic community helping the poor

Christmas is a time and an opportunity to share joy and love. “As Christians we should always share and care for others,” said Father Nandana Mantunga, director of the Human Rights Office of the Diocese of Kandy , said. To this end, his Office organised a meeting with local needy families and provided them with food parcels. For Fr Mantunga, “God comes into our everyday life, in times of peace and in times of turmoil, amid joy and sorrow, hope and disappointment, even during pandemics and wars.” “The Mission of Jesus is to proclaim the Good News to the poor, to open the eyes of the blind, to set the captives free, to cheer up broken hearts, to comfort those who mourn. As followers of Jesus, we share that same mission with our needy people.”
