Holy Angels, Sahibabad – 1971- and Holy Angels school, shalimar Garden, Meerut Diocese

 St. Joseph Province Keral has done an yeoman's service to the church of Meerut diocese. the friars have worked hared and in difficult situations and developed the areas.....the parishes that are now full fledged were once looked after by the capuchins.....the friars of kris jyoti are carrying on the same work in full gusto.....what you see is the fruit of their hard labour,,,,,,this is a school dedicated to the Holy Angels....which serving the people here for 40 years....many students have passed out and are very good citizens today.....

 There are 2500 students.....there is a great demand for the admissions,,,,,the friars cannot accommodate more numbers.....the standard of teaching is very good.....for last five years they have been receiving 100% results......hard work of the friars

 A parish which has 300 families....i celebrated mass and participated in the way of the cross.....this parish was once in the school campus but the government brought objection and asked the friars to close down the church....now it is 2km away from friars residence....everyday they go for the Mass and other activities....

 The parishioners represent 9 states of India....they are working here either for government or private companies....very participative and active in the community

 Provincial and community of the Holy Angels....he joined us for dinner last evening....
 There is another school started in the name of the Holy Angels....they started this school for the poor people....who don't get admission in another schools in the vicinity.....there are 450 students.....it is only up to 4th class....friars from the Holy Angels community look after the school...
 tiny tots....in attention when we visited their class rooms....all of them are non christians....
 Holy Angels school and the principal....John...


 Welcome by the teachers...
 I conducted a seminar for the teachers of both the schools....a power point presentation......there are 150 teaching and non teaching staff....good response from the teachers...


 It is a joy talking to the learned and who shape the destiny of almost 4000 students in both the class....the need of being human as teachers....be formators and teachers....not educators

 The friars also attended the talk.....

 time to clarify the doubts.....
 Friar Simon Kattoor.....great educationist....has worked in schools for 28 years,,,,,now guiding the young friars with his experience....he is a fatherly figure......
 the fraternity of Holy Angels.......
