Messages from Our Leaders
Message from the Bishop
+ Francis Serrao, SJ
Bishop of Mysore
I am filled with hope and gratitude as I reflect on the vibrant presence of youth in the life of our Diocese. You are not only the future of the Church, but truly its present — alive, active, and full of potential.
I urge each one of you to take up leadership with conviction and integrity. The world today needs young leaders who do not merely follow, but who "show the way, know the way, and walk the way."
Through the Youth Commission, we are committed to supporting, guiding, and accompanying you in all your endeavors. I wish to assure you that I am always ready and willing to support every young man and woman of the Diocese in all possible ways.
May you continue to grow in faith, courage, and wisdom, becoming true witnesses of Christ in today's world.
With prayerful best wishes,
Diocese of Mysore
