Thanksgiving: We have opened a new extension centre at Thodupuzha, north east of the Territory where we now have 12 families.

Matter of concern: Peermade issue. This is the eastern high range area where due to financial problems tea estate companies have closed down their factories. The people are out of work. The Government and voluntary agencies, including the Salvation Army, are working on behalf of the people's relief.


Self Support: Many Corps struggle to raise sufficient income. So we plan to conduct a survey with a view to identify fund raising possibilities.
