Dear Parishioners of St. Sebastian Church – Aquem,

I am really happy and glad to know that your parish magazine “PORMOLL” is completing 21 successful years. With its first issue released in December 1999, it seemed just like yesterday that we had started “PORMOLL” and today it completes so many years of successful publication.

When I had first initiated the issuance of this magazine, the whole intention was to be able to reach out to all the parishioners and communicate effectively. This was especially a beneficial instrument of communication during the fulfillment of many milestones for the parish including building one of Asia’ finest cemetery, amicable settlement of tenants which helped retain church assets, building of the new modern art church and setting up of the first ICSE school in Aquem.

My sincere congratulations to the editorial board members of “PORMOLL”, throughout the 21 years, without whose hard work, co-operation and dedication this parish magazine would not have been in continuous publication. CONGRATULATIONS, you truly are a talented bunch!

Finally and most importantly, through this Christmas season, may you and your families cherish the wonderful memories of love, care, hope and joy.

Merry Christmas and a very Happy and healthy New Year 2021.

Yours Truly,
Fr. James Alex Torres E Silva
