Dear Parishioners,
“May our Lord Christ bless you all with his protection during these difficult times. “
Renovation and maintenance work of St. Sebastian’s Church Karampon started on 26-06-2020 by the Church administration board with the financial assistance of the St. Sebastian Church – Canadian Committee. Under the direct supervision of our Parish Priest, Rev Fr. Pathinathan , board member, Mr. Angelo Bastiampillai and Treaurer of St. Sebastian Church Karampon ,Mr. A. Wales Justin.
As these renovations are taking place during a time that we are facing financial difficulties, we are extremely happy and grateful to learn that parishioners in various other countries (notably UK, Australia, USA, France, Germany etc) are also raising or contributing funds to assist with the reconstruction efforts.
We kindly request that these funds to be also transferred to the bank account that has been specifically created for the reconstruction of St. Sebastian Church – Karampon. Please note that this bank account is monitored by the Parish Priest as authorized by the Most Venerable Bishop of Jaffna.
The operating budget for all the church renovations will only reside in this account.
