THE POEM
I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do. I had to hurry and get to work For bills would soon be due. So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, And jumped up off my knees. My Christian duty was now done My soul could rest at ease..... All day long I had no time To spread a word of cheer No time to speak of Christ to friends, They'd laugh at me I'd fear. No time, no time, too much to do, That was my constant cry, No time to give to souls in need But at last the time, the time to die. I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes. For in his hands God! held a book; It was the book of life. God looked into his book and said "Your name I cannot find I once was going to write it down... But never found the time"

Divine Call Centre, Mulki, being one
of the most influential retreat centres in spreading the Word of God, ventures
into yet another innovative way to reach out to the World in spreading the Good
news.

Chairman, Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI) - Commission for
Youth who is also the Co-Chairman of CBCI Commission for Social Communications.
The video contains the
welcoming message by the Director of DCC, Rev. Fr. Cyprian Lewis SVD.
Speaking on the occasion the Provincial Rev. Fr. Stanislaus Lazar appreciated
the Centre for being innovative in reaching out to many people with the Word of
God. In keeping in line with the charism of the Society (SVD) as envisioned by
the Founder St. Arnold Janssen to use all possible means in proclaiming the
Good News, he said that it is a right step taken by Divine Call Centre in this
cyber age.
