Apostle of Dhandhuka Mission
He Came to India and went for theological studies in Pune and after
that he began to study seriously Gujarati language by attending classes in a local
school and practicing it as best as he could whilst visiting the houses of the
poor of the neighbourhood to whom he would distribute simple medicines for
their various ailments. People also remember with a good deal of amusement his
contribution to the ‘simpatico club’ of those days that besides
organizing enjoyable recreation, also undertook the serious business of
planting trees around De Nobili Colllege where earlier was nothing but rocks.
The people of Mariampura have much to be grateful for. The beautiful
church he built for them was only an external expression of the spiritual church of Christ that he helped them to become
with much toil and prayer and with particular care for the education of poor
students.
Even after the heart operation he was still an inspiration to the
younger Jesuits with his missionary activities. He used to go from house to
house and village to village in Dhandhuka areas to help the poor to rebuild
their houses and to revive their spirits after the calamitous earthquake
of Jan 2001. He undertook a lot of agro-developmental works especially during
the drought hit years and organized works for food to those in need and helped
the poor farmers with seeds and fertilizers.
