Rising to the occasion amidst challenging times has been always a special call of the Trinitarians and we can’t fail in this time too. As the world remains helpless in front of this unseen enemy, there are many people whose lives may not matter for the majority. Those are the low income families and families of migrants.

The Trinitarians of Bangalore made some remarkable efforts to do the best we could by reaching out to the needy, as per the instructions of our Redeemer the Risen Lord.

First on the list was to reach out and get informed what we can do in this situation. After certain deliberations, we decided to outsource from our limited resources and make a few people smile.

We purchased food materials from wholesale market and made foot kits ( each weighed upto 10-12 kilos worth Rs 1000 each.  The initial purpose was to make 15 bags of food but later changed in to 25 bags. The distribution was done with the help of some volunteers from IMHC parish Kalena Agrahara,  Bangalore.

Secondly  the plan emerged was to collaborate with the Jesuits of Karnataka province, Mount St Joseph. Our Brothers were the main in line to do packing of thousands of bags which would go to those in financial distress and poverty.

So far our brothers have  made  1546 bags of food grains each  containing  25-30 kilos  materials. We have offered 120 hours of voluntary labor and supervision in making the bags with the Mount St Joseph, Jesuits in Loyola High School building. And the need and our passion for continuing this mission stand strong.

We are planning one more shop and purchase of food materials from our community resources and provide for the needy in our neighboring areas of Bangalore. We would welcome anyone who likes to join hands for providing help for the neediest ones around us. Ideas and resources are welcome.
